Decending route

Decending Mt Fuji meant taking a different route than the one used to climb Mt Fuji. The decending route looked like it was an old lava flow because it was full of loose reddish, scorched-looking rocks. A lot of dust was thrown up and the track was very steep. The 3 hour walk was very tiring and uncomfortable due to the hot sun, dust, steep track and very loose & rocky surface. I fell 4 times when losing my footing on the loose rocks. This was the last photo I took.
