Outdoor guide Daniel Moore immerses himself in the rugged beauty of Minami Shinshu in southern Nagano Prefecture. During his journey, he spends a night in a deserted historic post town, treks alongside a local hunter, and meets a skilled wood artisan. He enjoys a night of camping beneath a starry sky, navigates the Tenryu River in a traditional boat, and savors tea on the terraced slopes of a farmer couple's land.
