Can a 6-Year-Old Climb Mt. Fuji?

I climbed Mt. Fuji with my 6-year-old nephew. Did he make it? In 2023 I spent three months in Japan living with my brother and his family, and climbing Mt. Fuji was the one thing I always wanted to do. So with my nephews Alvin (6) and Vailen (8), we took the Subashiri Trail, slept in a mountain hut, woke up at 2 AM for the summit push and watched the sunrise above the clouds. They say it takes about 5 hours. It took us 21. Trip facts • Trail: Subashiri, from the 5th Station (2,000 m) • Hut: Miharashi-kan, Original 7th Station (3,200 m), about ¥10,000 (~$70) a night with dinner and breakfast.
