In the century when mountaineering activities developed to a higher level, the Japanese national team sent four mountaineering teams one after another. In the year of l985, 1987, 1990, and 1992, the four climbed this peak. Although the preparation was relatively complete, it eventually ended in failure. On July 22, 1993, the Japanese team successfully climbed to the top.
