I wrote a report on this in Japanese
So I will just paste it here (^^,)
富士山登山の時期：
富士山は2013年に世界遺産に登録された日本最高山である．
世界中には観として人気スポットの一つであり，登山者の数も年々増加している．
富士山の高さは3,776mがあり，山頂のでは気温が非常に低いため，
夏の7月～8月までの間しか登れないというルールがある．
富士山登山の準備：
登山の準備が欠かせない．
山頂は約3度～5度ぐらいの気温なので，
ダウンジャケット，帽子，手袋などの防寒道具が必要である．ま
た登山道具では，杖，ヘッドライト，登山靴，厚い靴下，レイングッズ，
防風道具，食べ物，スポーツドリンクが必要である．
下山の際には，山のホコリや太陽を防ぐため，マスクやサングラスが必要である．
富士山登山開始：
登山者たちは，午後から登り始め，8・9合目の小屋に泊まってから
朝出発してご来光をみることが多い．
私達は宿を節約するため，5合目で晩御飯を済んでから登り始めた．
途中では小屋やトイレの設備は整えているだが，全部別料金がかかる
（トイレ一回200円）．休憩所は平らのところで椅子あるいは石の上に
休憩するしかできない．山頂までの道は，砂道もあったり，大きな石に登ったり，
階段上がったりし，道の角度はだんだん上がっていき，
登るにはだんだんきつくなり，気温もだんだん下がっていく．
途中で休憩しながら服をどんどん着ていく．
