Thank you very much by: Sylvia
Thank you very much Gary. I have actually planned to climb Mt. Fuji next year between 6-10 July. I've booked my flight. I'm giving myself ample time to prepare for the climb. I intend to start from the base. My plan is to put a night near the base, any suggestions? Then take an early bus to start from the shrine. I will put a night at a mountain hut on the 7th station then continue in the midnight for the summit. I made up this plan after reading all the FAQ. Thank you very much for all the useful information especially for your efforts to update and answer questions. No matter how silly the question is. You have created a very useful site. Really thankful to you.

Not sure, but I doubt it... by: Gary Wolff
Sylvia, most people who climb Mt. Fuji don't really have "backpacks," but medium to large-size daypacks.
While other mountain huts in Japan's high country will allow you to do that on a case-by-case basis, in general I believe Mt. Fuji mountain hut owners would frown on it, in view of the huts' limited size and the fact that around 300,000 people climb the most visited mountain in the world during the July to mid-September climbing season alone.
But I assume every hut's policy is different, so if you've already paid to stay there (even to rest for a few hours), it's always possible they might allow it. If you have a particular hut in mind, you could always call (or skype) them to confirm it.
Please be mindful though that this year's official climbing season has already finished as of Sept. 14, and all Mt. Fuji mountain huts above the 6th Station will have closed by the end of this month: https://www.garyjwolff.com/mt-fuji-mountain-huts.html
