Yamanashi Prefecture plans to charge climbers a fee for helicopter rescues on Mount Fuji during the mountain's offseason, in a move aimed at deterring reckless ascents. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2026/09/14/japan/yamanashi-mount-fuji-rescue-charge/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #japan #mountfuji #mountaineering #mountains #yamanashi #helicopters

Two days hiking, mountaineering and a little bit of climbing with my son.
We departed yesterday morning and started our little adventure at Bristen Kohlplatz. We hiked up to the Etzli hut SAC, which is currently closed for renovation.
After an hour break we climbed up the east ridge of Rossbodenstock and trained alpine climbing, rope handling a.s.o. The climb it self is nice and not too challenging. Ideal terrain for training. We were able to leave the climbing shoes in our backpack.
And the Best: Nobody else there thanks to the closed hut.
After that we picked up our luggage and finally found a nice spot for the night.
As both of us were quite exhausted this morning we opted for the shortest option and did some climbs at the climbing garden Spillauplatten before descending to the bus stop.
Currently we are sitting in the train back home, exhausted but happy.

This mountain probably hardly needs an introduction: the Matterhorn (or Cervino in Italian, as it lies in the Swiss/Italian border) seen from the ascent to the Allalinhorn. With a height of 4'478 m / 14'692 ft it is the 10th highest mountain of Switzerland and was first climbed in 1865.

On the 150th anniversary of the first ascent, the mountain was given a day of silence, in remembrance and honor of the over 500 climbers who lost their lives trying to climb the Matterhorn. Anyone who was climbing the Matterhorn that day anyway, would get a fine of 5'000 CHF (5'500 USD).
