Mizugaki
Mizugaki is a climbing area in Japan, located in the northern part of the Yamanashi Prefecture.[1] The forest of Mizugaki is owned by the Emperor of Japan.[2]
It is known for highball bouldering and long trad lines.[3] The rock consists of granite with many natural pockets. Because of the higher altitude it is also possible to climb in Mizugaki during the summer.[4]
Jason Kehl can be seen climbing in Mizugaki in the movie Big in Japan.[5]
