Almost 2 hours have now passed buy until finally this restaurant opens. It was very cold. Over time more and more climbers approached.

|
|
At 4:15 the first light can be seen, but no sun as of now.
|
|
|
|
Climbers queuing up and waiting..

Not yet there.. freezing cold.

The torii which greeted when coming up, now starting to descend
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The air is thin at this height, some people are using oxygen from cans.
|
|
|
|
Nice views while descending. Now in the light I properly see the underground, looks like it could be on the mars.

Snow. The Fujisan is open for visitors only for a period of ~2months in summer.

Taking the same way down which I was using using upwards. I wondered about taking the other way, but then I would have been the only one heading into the opposite directions of many people climbing up.
|
|
|
|
Just great views.

|
