Starting July, all climbers who ascend Mt. Fuji from the Yamanashi Prefecture side will be charged a 2,000-yen toll. It is part of a new set of measures aimed at encouraging proper climbing etiquette and preventing accidents. We review the story and learn about the suffix "-kata" in "noborikata" (the way to climb), as well as mountaineering terms like "goome" (roughly one-tenth of the way from the base to the summit) and "raku" (falling rocks).
