Climbing in early September

FORUM TOPIC able_danger

Hello everyone,

I am returning to the Tokyo area early this September and was hoping to climb Mt Fuji before I return to America. I have attempted a climb from the bottom once but only made it to the sixth station due to foot problems. (I'll never wear those boots again!)

I'm sorry Junior, these sites are all in Japanese! I wish I could tell you I can read them, but I can't.

Regaurdless, thank you for all of your help.

It's so unfortunate that most of hotel Web sites don't have English version.
I heard some hotels/huts hire English-speaking staff during official climbing season though.
