There also is no charge or penalty when a climber needs to be rescued, but the Chinese student&#8217;s case prompted an uproar on social media and generated calls for him to be charged, at least for his second rescue.<\/p>\n<p>Following the man&#8217;s rescue, police in Shizuoka prefecture reiterated its advice against climbing the mountain during the off-season as the weather could suddenly change, making it hard for rescuers to respond, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.com\/news\/articles\/cn0w7xx0kk5o\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">the BBC reported<\/a>. Medical facilities along the trails are also closed.<\/p>\n<p>Police urged all climbers to use caution, noting that the mountain has low temperatures and is covered in snow even in spring.<\/p>\n<p>The 3,776-meter-high (12,388-foot-high) mountain was designated a UNESCO World Cultural Heritage site in 2013. A symbol of Japan, the mountain called &#8220;Fujisan&#8221; used to be a place of pilgrimage and is increasingly popular among hikers today.<\/p>\n<p>To control overcrowding and risks from rushed overnight climbing through rocky slopes to see the sunrise, local authorities last year introduced an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.com\/news\/world-asia-68481036\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">entry fee<\/a> and cap on the number of entrants on the most popular trail and will introduce similar rules on other main trails this year.<\/p>\n<p>But exactly how many tourists visit Fuji \u2014 and how many is too many \u2014 is up for debate, Thomas Jones, a professor of sustainability and tourism at Japan&#8217;s Ritsumeikan University, <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/japan-mt-fuji-screaming-for-relief-from-over-tourism\/\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">told CBS News<\/a><\/span> in 2023.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You would have to find consensus&#8221; for what constitutes carrying capacity, he said, &#8220;and at the moment there isn&#8217;t really anything like that. So, there isn&#8217;t really a kind of concerted effort to limit the number of visitors there.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>In 2023, more than 220,000 people climbed Mount Fuji between July and September,
