Can You Climb Mt. Fuji in 1 Day? 🗻

Although the official climbing season ends September 10, we climb Mt. Fuji via the Yoshida Trail the last week of the month. As the tallest mountain in Japan, the summit of Mount Fuji is 3,776 meters above sea level, or well over 2 miles tall!
After taking a bus from Tokyo to Fuji Subaru Line 5th Station, we spend the night at Sato-goya, the only high-elevation Fuji mountain lodge open year round. Very early the next morning, we start our ascent up the mountain with the goal of seeing the sunrise. Probably one of the most epic things I've seen to date, watching the sun slowly peak over the horizon is truly magical.
I document our entire hike up the mountain in this stunning 4K video that I've put together with the hopes of acting as a guide to other future climbers who are looking for information about summiting Mt. Fuji. Honestly, I found it hard to find information about how to climb Mt. Fuji in the off-season.
There was no snow on the mountain this time of year. Only some large icicles at the top. My biggest piece of advice is to wear many layers of clothing and bring at least 3 liters of water per person. Water on the mountain is expensive at 800 yen for 2 liters.
All in all, climbing Mount Fuji was one of the best experiences of my life, so if you're considering doing it and have any questions, let me know in the comments below.

Amazing view, the climb looked not as tough as i thought it would be

[@TonyFlorida]

Yeah it wasn't as bad as I though either. If you're in okay shape, it will be a challenge but doable
