Thanks!

I fully agree that this is THE BEST video I have seen - VERY comprehensive - describing the start AND end of the journey up and down Mt Fuji. Often people show the ascend but not the descent. KUODS and thank you

[@arlscent]

I miss Mt. Fuji. So many beautiful memories that I cherish. My daughter was made in Japan ( honeymoon baby) I love Japan

[@KyzylReap]

Thank you! I know I’ll never climb a mountain at my age and ability but I’m happy there are people like you willing to share the adventure with us!

[@brianrajala7671]

Me too, at nearly 80, that sun has set!

[@debbiecurtis4021]

I climbed Fuji San at 26 years old, and again at 50. The first time was easy. The second time I snapped a ligament in my leg. I made it to the summit, and down again, but it took so long to finish.

In 1976-77, I was stationed at Marine Corps Camp Fuji base. I was there from November 76 to Jan 1978. I can tell you back then the Gotemba trail was straight up, until you came alone side the pressure vent before seeing any switchbacks up further. It took me and another marine 7 1/2 hours to reach the summit one Sunday. The first of 4 climbs that year. The first time up its was a total whiteout. We couldn't see the crater, but just a small shack for souvenirs, food etc. Still a lot of snow and ice were everywhere the last 1000ft. sometime in June, I believe. There was no one else on that trail when we climb Fuji. The second attempt failed due to blizzard conditions hitting our group on the southern Fujinmoiya trail. My 3rd attempt was again with the Gotemba trail with another friend to do a sleep over and see the sunrise. Last was on the Subashiri trail making it to the top in 5 1/2 hours. I was young and in great shape, though the hiking at times was grueling, but I was determined. Reaching the summit that day, the weather finally cooperated to see the crater. That was unbelievable how deep and seeing how wide the crater was back then. I still have my Fuji rock from the top with me all these years!! Japan has a special place in my heart for the people and for Mt. Fuji!

Great story. Fitness is the key. I must work on that.

[@zestivakoh1546]

Thank you for your effort in making this Mt Fuji Summit climb video :). I enjoyed watching it. Best wishes. Cheers.

[@ITSUKAJAPANTRAVEL]

Thank you! I appreciate it.

[@palmtrees2420]

My family and I were stationed in Iwakuni, Japan when I was 6 years old. My father was in his early 30's at the time and was a very strong Navy man. He climbed Mt.Fuji either for military training or with friends I forgot, but even he said it was a very hike. He still has the stick with all the stamps on it. Wish I was older at the time so I could've gone with! Beautiful video thanks for sharing.

[@lerico536]

This is one of the best POV travel videos I've ever seen. Well done! If I might be permitted to make one suggestion. The vehicles that are used to move supplies and equipment up and down the mountain are called track trucks. I'll be relocating to Osaka permanently at the end of 2022 and I'm looking forward to trekking in the mountains of Japan. Thank you for making this video!

[@lenoredemers3560]

WOW! What an exceptional experience. I am very appreciative of you for sharing it. It makes me feel like I climbed with you! Thank you so much!

[@tinyfrog919]

I think that was your best upload ever. I loved it. Thank you Itsuka.

[@tankeryy1566]

the climb was a challenge but your effort was rewarded with a beautiful sunrise and a beautiful view from Mount Fuji, also im so glad this video got recommended to me back on February 28, 2023. watched the whole video today coz im free at the moment and watching the whole video from start to finish was worth it! i should try climbing Mount Fuji too when i have the chance to go to japan one day!

[@Tydrix]

Glad Japan is finally reopening. Plan to make this hike in summer 2023, but hiking it in a single day.

[@edching908]

Itsuka-san, this is by far one of the best videos I've ever seen from you! Although you noted that more people are climbing Japan's iconic mountain, still from the looks of what I've seen here, Fuji-san is definitely not for the weak-hearted. Hats off to you for your supreme effort to share us this vlog.

A treat for your fans -- thank you! I've only seen Mt. Fuji once from the air, long ago, and I'd always wished to visit up close. I hope your thumb is recovering well.

[@ITSUKAJAPANTRAVEL]

Thank you very much. Fuji might just be better to see from an airplane than to climb it 😆 I hope my thumb heals quickly. It's still purple😭

[@gerald5344]

@@ITSUKAJAPANTRAVEL Still purple? Oh no! I hope there won’t be permanent damage to this cultural treasure! Please take a rest to recover after wearing yourself out for us!

Wow, Itsuka, you will have my full respect for climbing Mt. Fuji. This looks hard. Love the video. Many thanks.

Wow, you did amazing. You showed such courage to go alone and make the climb by yourself. I admire you! Thanks for sharing such an a wonderful opportunity!

[@onetwistedkitty6326]

From someone who would never get the chance to do this climb, I think you did a wonderful job in capturing not only the breathtaking mountain scape but all of the other aspects of what this climb entails. Thank you for such a excellent video!

I am Japanese and have been climbing for over 10 years. This video is best for beginners. I hope many tourists will refer to the video to reduce accidents.

[@capricorn839]

I watched the mountain with awe from afar and pondering am I capable to climb that majestic mountain ? After watching this video the answer is or should be YES !

[@HendrikDaStar]

What a view, especially with the cumulonimbus clouds in the background during sunset, then You see how tall this Beautiful mountain is.

I climbed Mt Fuji in July of this year! Went up the Subashiri trail and stayed at a hut around 7.5 station. One of the most physically taxing things I've ever done. Rained the entire way up but sunny all the way donw. I plan to be the crazy person and climb again next year for that beautiful hiking experience. Watching this video is surreal cause I still can't believe I did it.

[@crabvakho]

Great video, its so relaxing and calming. I was silent throughout the whole time. 33 minutes passed so quickly.

Thank you for the amazing video. I guess If I were to climb Mt Fuji myself I wouldn't have experienced it with more detail than your video did!!!

[@pinayladyoz8044]

My husband and I climbed Mt. Fuji July, 2018 (summer). We did it once and we will never come back. Going down was the scary part of it. The soft pumice rocks something you really hard to be extra careful. My advice to those planning to climb Mt. FUJI, make sure you got the right gears and make sure you don't carry heavy loads or bags. Also, bring plenty of small chocolates or mint candies to eat while climbing. I found this helpful as this processed distract my brain when climbing very stiff path in cold late afternoon. In addition, bring some tablets to take if you feel nauseous.

[@revindarenata]

I just got back from Japan 2 days ago. During my trip to Kyoto, I saw the beautiful sight of Mt.Fuji through shinkansen and my curiosity about the mountain has been growing ever since. I am really curious about the view from up there. I have never climbed any mountain before and I don't think I ever will in the future but thanks to your video, I now know what it's like to be on top of the mountain. Hope you had a great time at Mt.Fuji ⭐️

[@takeovermdp]

WOW this is one of the best vids that I have seen lately! thanks a lot for sharing this with us. You are so strong and brave! I think I found a really good channel to prepare my trip to japan. Greetings from Argentina 🇦🇷

Thank you for sharing your beautiful experience, Itsukaさん. Whenever I see Mt.Fuji during my flights between Seoul and Tokyo, I always dream about climbing Mt. Fuji.

I climbed Mt Fuji when I was stationed in Japan with the military. You really captured my experience pretty well, right down to the cloud cover and the mist. I do remember coming back down to be pretty miserable though, going up wasn't nearly as painful as going the other way.

[@rahabvon-horn9152]

It sure is a lot different than when I climbed it 50 years ago! We (friends) went up one day, couldn't go up to see the crater, due to fog & drizzle, and back down the next. Going down with the drizzle, made the ash very slippery. We were wet, cold and hungry! I'm glad they made some improvements to the mountain. I'm looking fwd to watch more of your videos!
