Yes. One night.
You should be able to find the campsite by comparing the Japanese map with an English map. It is at Saiko Lake, one of the Five Lakes of Mt. Fuji.

The autumn camp is usually in October.
But there may be an informal event in September. I'll let you know if there is.

Great nature and great touring, too.

Tomorrow’s camp meeting has been canceled due to danger of landslides in the area.
I hope this reaches anybody planning to go!
Next meeting is planned for about October.
But if anybody is in the country and would like to meet up, we could probably schedule something.

Membership - help keep us going!
Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.
You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
