    Mt Fuji in Sandals and No Breaks?! You’re A Legend! And you made it back down before noon! Man, I’m impressed. Mt Fuji is on my bucket list and all the other vids I’ve seen on it were of people who took group hiking packages where they slept on the top and hiked back the next morning

    the day climb is better.....those tour packages in which you have to stay on a hut overnight are for typical tourists...... believe me, any physically fit individual can do it....most can even do the ascent in about four hours and the descent around two hours
