mattlucas 0 Posted October 9, 2004 Author Share Posted October 9, 2004 Near the summit of Fuji. Waited in the clouds for 3 hours until sun rose or for us black turned to gray. Decsended down a hundred metres or so and found this Here I'm about half a metre higher than the summit plaque on Fuji My camp a few weeks ago below Tsurugidake near Tateyama and Murodo.

Fattwins 0 Posted October 9, 2004 Share Posted October 9, 2004 Yeah but those lodges need to be full to make money. Ithink 3 stations should stay open top mid and bottom. That would be enough I think. I would love to camp in the crator, mate. Link to post Share on other sites
mattlucas 0 Posted October 9, 2004 Author Share Posted October 9, 2004 Yah. It would have been nice to have 1 place open up top to get a warm drink. I have yet to see the inside of the crater. Both times it has been cloudy. Link to post Share on other sites
