Every visit to Mt. Fuji has been different. The weather makes all the difference even when it's not wet and windy. To date I have been to Mt. Fuji a total of 58 times. Below are brief summaries along with a few of the many 100s of photographs I have taken. Details of climbs in 2017/18/19/21/22/23 ( 34-58) not updated yet . With double-climbs on some visits the actual total climbs to the summit is about 62 or 63.
