Hello Joe JJ1FJK
May you have good weather on your climb and activation! As I look out my office window I see the sun!
The approach to the meteoroligical station varies from steep to very steep depending on which side you climb it.

At the summit, if you hike counter clockwise you will use the steep approach. If you hike a clockwise route, you will use the very steep approach. This approach is the left side (with the fence posts visible) of the photo you posted. People sometimes grab the fence posts to keep themselves upright and to keep from falling over backwards. サービス終了のお知らせ
Also, I saw your alert as JJ1FJK/P just to minimize the confusion to local chasers … JA doesn’t usually use “/P” when we are mobile or portable. Instead “/(call area)” is used. We annunciate “/” as “portable” (not “stroke”).
So if I was portable or mobile in Shizouka (call area 2) I will be annunciating as “juliet india 1 kilo bravo fox portable 2” (“JI1KBF/2”). If I operate in the park 2km from my apartment, I use “/1”. If I was using my radio in my apartment (the specific address used in my license) I drop the call area.
