Welcome

Welcome to the first edition of JapanGazetteer.com, a site dedicated to Japan's 100 most famous mountains (日本百名山 Nihon Hyakumeizan), a list of mountains depicted inthe 1964 collection of essays by Mountaineer/Author Kyuya Fukada. This site has been created to provide information to fellow hikers treading the land of the rising sun.

This site is still under development.

It is extremely rough around the edges, needs a lot of beautifying, data is still missing, not to mention the typos and mistakes that are sprinkled here and there. Still, if I don’t push it out, it will never see the light of day.  I’ll keep working on it as time permits.

Found a typo? A mistake? Know something I don't, send me a note.

General comments and suggestions are welcome on the forum.
