The sketch drawn by the recovery team
is from Capt Samuelson's IDPF

In there are the locations of the crash site,
where crew members were recovered, and the mountain.

At the center left the school is highlighted with a blue rectangle.
Between the school and river at the bottom is a mountain :

Ogiyama
( Mount Ogi )
Elevation 1138 meters
( 3734 feet )

Following the sketch are five Google Maps.

The first two are from Wes Injerd and show
the location where the Japanese pilot's aircraft crashed.

Next are three topography maps.

The first one is flat with no elevations.
The English translation has the words Aterazawa Falls.

One document in Sgt Janecek's IDPF states
the crash location as Oterzawa.
I do not know for certain if they are the same.

The Sagami River flows beneath the
area where the remains were recovered.
The Tsuru River flows north to south.

Next is a map with terrain and elevations.

At the bottom of the page a is
Google topography map.
