Dear all members

Taking the opportunity of the year of the UAAA 20th anniversary, the JAC Overseas Committee in association with the JMA would like to invite you to a Mt Fuji climb in the snow in the 2015 spring season.

President of UAAA would like to say thanks to the organizers, JAC & JMA on behalf of UAAA.

Please review all the details as attached file.

The cost would be about US$ 500- for a three day tour from Tokyo to Tokyo (including two nights' stay in the hotel at the foot of the mountain and transport to and from Tokyo).

The planned dates are from 　May 31 (Sun) to June 2 (Tues) 2015.

The tour itinerary would be

May 30: meet at the hotel in Tokyo.

( We could book a room for you in Tokyo but the accommodation should be paid

by the participants themselves )

May 31: Move to the hotel at the foot of Mt Fuji.

June 1: Climb to the peak and back to the hotel

June 2: Reserve day—

If we manage to finish the climb on June 1st , we would organize a trip around the foot of the mountain on day three. There are beautiful and interesting spots in the foothills.

At the moment we are thinking that the capacity should be 10 people.

The deadline for applications is April 25th. The cost is US$ 500-.

Anyone wishing to join the tour should be capable of winter climbing and should bring their own equipment. You need to bring crampons, an ice axe and other winter climbing equipment for the climb. There is no need for a sleeping bag or food, except for your favorite snacks and drinks which you may eat during the climb. You could buy snacks in Tokyo or in stores around the hotel where you would stay.
