Hiking near Mount Fuji

It is spring; everything is dull and colourless but there is a hint of freshness.










These pictures were taken while climbing Mitsu-toge mountain, near Kawaguchi-ko, Yamanishi prefecture. You can find more information on the climb in the excellent book Hiking in Japan (Lonely Planet), page 149.
