Satellite Poster Map of Mount Fuji

Click image for larger sample

Fuji, Japan's tallest volcano (3,776 meters) and a national symbol, is located about 110 km west-southwest of Tokyo in central Honshu, Japan. It is a highly recognizable target from space. The summit crater is about 250 meters deep, with a diameter of about 500 meters. Fuji last erupted in 1707 from Hoei crater, a vent on the mountain's southeastern flank. When this image was taken, the winter snow cover highlighted trails, roads, and other clearings above a certain elevation. Developments on Fuji's lower flanks, which include military installations and tourist resorts, remained snow-free.
