残雪期の西穂高岳に挑む54歳社長の記録　A 54-Year-Old Man's Account of Climbing Nishi-hotaka-dake During the Snow Season

この動画は2026年3月13日-14日の1泊2日の山行の記録映像です。 西穂高岳は、長野県と岐阜県にまたがる北アルプス南部の山。 新穂高ロープウェイを利用し、初心者でも比較的容易に西穂独標まで登れる人気コースですが、その先は高度な技術を要する上級者向けの岩稜帯です。 360度の大パノラマと、美しい高山植物（花の百名山）が魅力です。 今回は3月の積雪期にチャレンジしました。1日目は雪、2日目はほぼ無風の快晴のコンディションでした。 This video documents a two-day, one-night mountain hike that took place on March 13–14, 2026. Mt. Nishi-Hotaka is a mountain in the southern Northern Alps, straddling Nagano and Gifu Prefectures. It is a popular route where even beginners can relatively easily reach the Nishi-Hotaka Peak marker using the Shin-Hotaka Ropeway, But beyond that point lies a rocky ridge section requiring advanced technical skills and intended for experienced climbers. Its attractions include a 360-degree panoramic view and beautiful alpine flora (one of the “100 Famous Flower Mountains”). This time, I took on the challenge during the snow season. The first day was snowy, while the second day offered clear, sunny conditions.
