Docomo mountaineering season limited base station

DOCOMO has taken measures to enable mobile phone calls and data communications on mountain trails, such as by installing dedicated antennas and small base stations.
 
In addition, in places where electricity is not supplied in winter, we are installing and removing base stations according to mountain climbing scenes, and on September 16, we announced that we are expanding the area on some routes in the Northern Alps. .
 
For a limited time until early November, LTE communication is available on most of the Omote-Ginza and Ura-Ginza traversing routes in the Northern Alps.
 

 
You can search for mountain trails where Docomo communication is possible on the following web page.

Also, the map updated on September 16th is as follows.
 

  • Toyama Prefecture, Gifu Prefecture, Nagano Prefecture: Center of the Northern Alps
  • Toyama Prefecture/Gifu Prefecture: Mt. Kurobe Goro
  • Toyama Prefecture: Mt. Suisho-dake
  • Nagano Prefecture/Gifu Prefecture: Mt. Yarigatake
  • Nagano Prefecture: Mt. Otenjo

 
In August 2022, a mountaineer who was in distress in Nara Prefecture was rescued by a mobile phone report a week later, and the area where mobile phone communication is possible is very important for climbers.
