spired 0 Posted April 18, 2002 Share Posted April 18, 2002 anyone planning on skiing down mt. fuji this year? I was thinking about getting some tokyoites together for it. or maybe just climbing it and then pushing down some people to see how well they slide to the bottom. Link to post Share on other sites
brit-gob 9 Posted April 19, 2002 Share Posted April 19, 2002 What's the deal with this? Do people actually do it? ..... tell me more please! Link to post Share on other sites
big-will 7 Posted April 26, 2002 Share Posted April 26, 2002 No more on this, anyone? Do many people do it? Only questions, sorry! Link to post Share on other sites
miteyak 0 Posted April 26, 2002 Share Posted April 26, 2002 Yeah, a few do it. Some friends did it last year at Golden Week. Needed ice axes and crampons to get to the top, had a great ski down (for the time of year). Need to be at least a little knowledgable of the mountains and have all the necessary equipment/know how to use it, even at golden week. Remember the 100m, -1 degree rule. Fuji, at 3700 meters? pretty damn cold still on top. There's a more detailed thread on this board from last year. Check that out for more info. Link to post Share on other sites
