В начале 1958 года на японской антарктической базе «Сёва» было принято решение отправиться на материковую возвышенность Боттнутен с целью максимально точного определения её местоположения, высоты, а также геологического исследования местности. Три японских исследователя: профессор Департамента геофизики Университета Хоккайдо Аки́ра Усио́да, метеоролог из Университета Киото О́ти Кэндзи́ро и опытный альпинист Одза́ки Та́йтё решили осуществить экспедицию используя 15 ездовых собак. Из-за трудностей похода и начавшейся портиться погоды они вернулись позже запланированного срока. В это время японское исследовательское судно со сменной группой вынуждено было отправить самолёт за первой группой исследователей и забрать только людей. Собак оставили с недельным запасом пищи на базе «Сёва» дожидаться сменной группы. Но погодные условия, льды и повреждения судна не дали этого сделать и обе группы отправились в Японию.
