Fuji Climbers

In the summer of 2012 I joined many other 'pilgrims' on the arduous night climb to the summit of Mount Fuji, Fujisan. Little did I realise how hard it would actually be. The view from the top and sunrise over the Pacific is stunning.These are some of the images I made on the way up. On the way down, either with altitude sickness or experiencing a mystical journey, I missed the correct path that led to my bus and traversed the entire height to the base. A 7th Century monk helped me down.
