Kamikawa is a small town of about 4,000 population located on Hokkaidō and famous as a gateway to Daisetsuzan mountains, the largest national park in Japan.
Nakayama ski jumps K40 and K20 were built next to the Nakayama ski area in 1969. Kamikawa Junior ski jumping club formed in 1978 and has produced a lot of talented ski jumpers, the most successful was Masahiko Harada.
In mid 1990's club life lay down and Nakayama ski jumps were no longer used. After Harada's Olympic team victory during the Nagano Games 1998, he called for the revival of the jumping club in his hometown and in 2002 the team officially resumed activities. Sara Takanashi, Ladies World Cup winner and mixed World Champion of 2013, is the next generation of world class ski jumpers from Kamikawa.
