This is an educational and historical look at the infamous Hakkoda Mountains Disaster. In the leadup to the RussoJapanese War, the Japanese army sent a regiment on a training exercise across the Hakkoda Mountains in the middle of winter to prepare for cold and mountainous climates. It would go on to be the worst mountain climbing disaster in history.
