Careful of the toilets at the top, aparantly they are RANK, with people actually throwing up in them cause they cycle the water. Take a face mask or clothes peg for your nose!

Some hikers show up in beach sandals and designer clothing expecting a light jaunt to the top.

Hai... me stupid desu! But I wised up and made it to the top the following year :)

I was there this summer, and the toilet is not stinky. Gansomuro at 3250m is not stinky and the one at the summit on the Gotemba side was OK also. Didnt need a mask..but bring a mask anyways - you'll need it on the way down, with all the ash flying all over.

Ash?*

Its a volcano, and the mountain in one big ash pile. When descending you kick up loose soot.
