however im at fuiji mid / late september and i'd love to climb it from Kawaguchiko

i would have the warm clothes and provisions sorted
and would do the 10pm walk through the night till dawn
Im also a young, fit guy

I also appreciate that the weather can change and that there is always the chance extreme weather will prevent anyclimb

Is it ok to climb fuiji in late september ?

I think it is a restricted area outside July and August

You won't find anyone there but extrme climbers perhaps preparing for Everest climbs.
I don't know any more than that.

I know some people who have done it in summer and it is not that easy then. So I would say forget it and try another mountain that is climable in september.

I'll try to find out for sure. I'll post later.
