View Mount Fuji View In December Images. If you, like myself, have not had any experiences with snow before, then the visit to mt fuji would def be the highlight of your trip. The top two are known as old fuji (ko fuji) and young fuji (shin fuji).
Notably, mount fuji's iconic snow cap—which is normally visible throughout december—has been small or absent this year.
Mount fuji is an active stratovolcano that last erupted from 1707 to 1708. To its south is shizuoka prefecture that's facing the sea, and to its north is yamanashi prefecture with its many lakes. While there is usually no snow on mount fuji from late june until october, temperatures at the summit can drop to far below zero in the shoulder seasons. Seeing the top of fuji covered in snow is so amazing!
