We asked whether they would take our photo, which they kindly did. And then Jo took a photo of them on one of their own camera's, where I had the opportunity to capture this photo.
The 6th step is about 6km on track and about 1km in elevation from the Summit. We had to turn around here (we had a tight schedule on buses and trains to get back to Tokyo that evening), but they were continuing on to the Summit from here.
I think it would be possible to reach the Summit from Tokyo and back again in a day. Just not sure how we would handle the higher elevations and change in oxygen levels that goes with it.
A day for all to remember and a Mt Fuji summit is definitely on the agenda when we return to Japan sometime soon. A few Mt Fuji photos to follow.
