Geocache Description:

Top of the most popular mountain in the world. The mountain has over 100,000 climbers every year.

This is a long difficult climb to the summit of Mount Fuji-San. A climb that is very honarable if you can reach the top. Cachers climb to the top and log the find.

The hike take between 4 to 6 hours to the top and about 3 to 4 down. I went while I was in school and I thought the trek down was harder than going up. I would recommend lots of water and snacks to eat on the way up. Also bring a couple thousand yen and by a hiking stick and there are little camps as you hike up the mountain. You can have them stamp your hiking stick for 200 yen each camp. Also there are places to by food on the way up. At the top you can by a flag that says Top of Mt Fuji. It is a challenging hike, but rewarding when you know that you accomplished something that difficult.

To log this cache as a find email me with how many stations you hike past up the mountain and send a photo of yourself at the summit.
