The mountaineer moved out of the height of Japan's peak Mountain Fuji Last week he returned to the slope and was saved for the second time only four days later, the authorities said on Monday.
A climber was identified only as a 27-year-old Chinese student who lives in Japan. On April 22, he called the emergency and was translated after the development of symptoms of height, the police said, adding that his climb were also damaged.
On Saturday, he returned to the trail of Harry Fujanomy nearly 10,000 feet above sea level to look for his cellphone and other things left behind, Shizuoka Prefective Police said. Another mountaineer found that he was unable to move after he obviously got sick for the second time, police said.
“He was suspected of the height of the disease and was taken to the hospital,” a police spokesman said on Monday.
It is unknown whether he can find his phone in the end, local media reported.

Harry's pedestrian routes are officially open only from July to early September, but does not go for a hike to the off -season. Also, it is not charged or punished if the mountaineer needs to be rescued, but the Chinese student case caused upset on social media and caused calls to his charge, at least for his second salvation.
After the rescue of the man's police, the police prefecture once again confirmed the tips against climbing the mountain to the off -season when the weather may suddenly change, which burns the responsibility to answer, to answer, reports BBC. Medical facilities along the trails are also closed.
Police urged all climbers to use caution, noting that Harry is low in temperature and covered with snow even in the spring.
The mountain of 3776 meters high (12 388 feet) was appointed UNESCO World Cultural Heritage in 2013. The symbol of Japan, a mountain called “Fujison” used to be a pilgrimage site and is becoming more and more popular with tourists.
To control overflow and risk from moving overnight, raising the rocky slopes to see the sunrise, last year local authorities presented Admission And CAP on the number of entrants on the most popular trail and will introduce similar rules on other major trails this year.
But how many tourists visit Fuji – and how much too much – goes for discussion, Thomas Jones, Professor for Sustainability and Tourism at the University of Japanese University, said CBS News In 2023.
“You have to find a consensus” in what is a load capacity, he said: “And at the moment there is nothing like that. So, there is actually there is no kind of effort to limit the number of visitors.”
In 2023, more than 220,000 people climbed Mount Fuji between July to September, BBC reports.
