Mount Fuji Guide

Looking for a climb tour - 9th/10th July 2012 / DClondon

DClondon — Wed, 16 May 2012 22:14:43 +0900

Hello all, I'm coming to Japan in July and I'm trying to find a tour from Tokyo to Mt Fuji to do the sunrise summit climb, ideally on the 9th/10th July. There are a couple of places online but they have no tours planned for these dates, most seem to be later in the month.

I will also need to hire some climbing gear (waterproof clothes mainly) so information of rental places would be very useful too. I had originally planned to organise the trip on my own but it's so tight time wise I though it's better to be guided, like the idea of the hot spring on the day of the decent too which many of the tours seem to include.

Any help would be grateful received.

I am planning to climb Mt Fuji in Mid Sept 2012 on the Fujinomiya trail. Can anyone advise whether anything will be open along that trail, and does anyone want to hike with me ? I am reasonably fit.
Also, any tips/traps to be wary of for that time of year ?

Anyone planning to climb Fuji around 19th July 2012? Would be great if a few of us could go up together, planning on catching the sunrise...

A video of a man who fell from Mount Fuji summit / MFG

One of the most frequently asked questions at Mount Fuji Guide is "can I climb Mount Fuji in winter?"
Because we are not expert climbers, we cannot give you a judgement whether you have enough skill for winter climbing or not.
All we can do is to show what kind of risks are involved in climbing the mountain in winter.
Today we found yet another news about a man who fell from the icy mountain.
Luckily the man was rescued and now recovering from fractured legs and frostbite, according to the article.
You can watch the video of the man falling down the slope here:

My boyfriend and I are both English teachers in Tokyo. Mount Fuji was our last thing on our list of things to do in Japan before we return to Canada. I read a lot about Mount Fuji before leaving but none of the posts fully prepared me for what was to come. We ended up spending a lot of money on things we didn't think of until we were on the Mountain and the prices were outrageous.
This is my list for what you NEED to take to climb Mount Fuji:

Jeff,
Saw your post. The original post was for 2010, but since you posted 3 weeks ago I assume you are referring to August 2011. I was planning to climb August 31. Does that fit your schedule?

Hi everyone,
My name is Angie and I'm from the UK, travelling to Japan for a couple of weeks in September.
If anyone's interested in doing a night climb on 4th Sept or a day one on 5th let me know :)
my email is ang.whistles@gmail.com
I'll be coming from Tokyo so I'm thinking of getting the bus from Shinjuku to Kawaguchiko 5th station and going up the Yoshida trail from there. Also if anyone knows how crowded it usually is around that time it'd be really helpful to know!
