Aokigahara: Japan's Suicide Forest at the Foot of Mount Fuji
Aokigahara is a dense woodland on the northwest flank of Mount Fuji in Japan, long associated with suicide; authorities have recorded scores of deaths there in some years and stopped publishing annual figures to discourage imitation. The association is often traced to Seicho Matsumoto's 1961 novel Nami no To, whose characters die there, though deaths in the forest predate it. Signs at the trailheads urge visitors to reconsider and give a helpline number. |

I wonder if any of the land is for sale...looks like a nice place for a cabin.
