Snow-Capped Peak of Volcano

Shot of the southeastern slope of Mt. Fuji as seen from the summit of Jukkoku-Toge pass in Shizuoka Prefecture. From this view, we can see a crater halfway up volcano on the southern slope. This crater formed on Dec. 16 1707 after the Hoei Eruption, which lasted several weeks. Ash fell over vast regions of eastern Japan including as far away as Tokyo causing mass starvation as crops were destroyed. The beauty and grace of Mt. Fuji belies her nature of mass destruction.
