    Just before the winter snow flurries were about to begin I got to shoot for Columbia Sportswear Japan’s official blog WITH OUTDOOR. The first post of the series is here with Ken Yamaguchi. This is the second of six interviews that will be coming out this year.  都内の映像プロデューサーが山小屋オーナーになるまで 2022年7月1日、16年間休業していた山小屋が、ふたたび営業を開始した。乗鞍高原から乗鞍岳を目指す山岳ルート、乗鞍エコーライン上に建つ冷泉小屋だ。冷泉小屋の創業は1931年（昭和6年）。乗鞍高原を見渡す標高約2,100mにあり、道路を挟んだ向かい側に、名前の由来でもある冷泉が絶え間なく湧き出ている。 — Read on withoutdoor.jp/lifeinnorikura-2/
