The minute we reached the 1,000 meter level on the Wednesday afternoon climb up Tonodake, I knew that cooler days were soon to come. Pouring with sweat from a consistent one hour trudge up the side of the first mountain coldly stung against my skin as the pre-autumn breeze past. Then, being the person that I am, I grew concerned about a cold or catching pneumonia, so walked faster to the next spring where I could wash and change.
This is quite a popular photo of Mt. Fuji. It was taken at sunrise this past Thursday morning. When I crawled out of my tent to see this about an hour after sunrise, the feeling itself really made three climbs up here to get a good view very well worth the effort.
Google Earth users can plug these GPS coordinates in to see where this picture was taken - Latitude = 35°27'15.63"N, Longitude = 139° 9'47.45"E . This is a long rough climb for the nominal altitude gain. The view, however, is almost 360 degrees panorama. One can see the great Kanto Plain at night, a sunset just to the right of Fuji-san, the Izu Peninsula - the only obstruction is to the North, which is covered by Hirugatake.
Enjoy.
