#4 Mt.Fuji Part1
Let’s go to Mt.Fuji !!
I climbed it in 2021, so I hope I could give some tips.
At first, what you should know are ;
1.A climbing period :
only from July to early September
2.Success rate:
About 70% of climber can make it to the top,
and 50% of inexperienced mountain climber can do.
3.Tour :
You can pick it up from several guide tour options.
Here are some tips.
【Backpack-luggage】
Keep luggage-weight to a minimum as much as you can.
Points
①Clothes
Don’t try to see a view of sunrise from the summit.
While you are waiting for it, you need extra winter clothes to keep out the cold.
②Bottled water
2 bottles of 500cc is enough.
There are enough shops (huts) on your way, so you can buy it there.
It costs you 600 Yen.
It’s expensive though, it is worth. I bought it totally more than ten bottles.
③Snacks (during the break time)
Keep it a minimum.
【Sleep at a hut】
To have a good rest in a dormitory, you have better bring earplugs.
【Breathing】
While you are climbing, keep deep breathing.
