Hi
Wasn't sure whether to put this in the Asia section or in the Pacific Island section. Feel free to move it wherever is most appropriate.
Anyway, I'd like to plan a trip to Japan and do a spring (May?) ascent of Fuji-San. What is the best route for this? I like spring climbing, but have only done two spring ascents (Hood and Baldy). So, when I say best route, I mean most reasonable and SAFEST! I don't know anything about crevasse rescue or ice screws. Looking at the SP mountain info, I don't think I really need a guide service and would prefer not to use one.
TIA
