>>We saw quite a few Japanese hikers sucking back bottled oxygen as they climbed toward the top. It seemed ridiculously unnecessary.
>>It would have been a nice place to hang out except all of the other hikers were lighting up cigarettes.
I see a connection.
What? No 7-11's with Bento Box lunches?
FYI - Altitude Sickness can occur at any elevation above 8000 feet.
I had no idea Mt. Fuji was so commercialized. But, still, it's awesome that you got to the top. I hope you get up there again when it's sunny and clear.
It is pretty developed and commercialized but I would still recommend doing it! It's a lot of fun and Fuji is such a Japanese icon that you can't not do it. As for altitude sickness, I don't think you can die of it on Fuji but I had a horrible headache the entire time so it's not something to take lightly (as I did).
So we spent three hours drinking wine together and the fact that you just climbed MT.Fuji slipped your mind?
You are crazy. Love it
Too funny. It must have slipped my mind!
