Hello,

I and my fellow Finn will be traveling in Japan when we will be at the 
World Science Fiction Convention in Yokohama in 2007. We are seriously 
considering climbing Mt. Fuji and I have a habit of checking the web
cams around the mountain every few days. 

This picture <URL:

Mt. Mitsutoge makes us wonder: what is the large, light area on the left 
above the settlement? Fields? Wouldn't they erode? Trees with leaves?
Probably too high and the colour seems rather light for that.

We could, of course, check that ourselves after 16 months but that's a
long time to be curious :)
