So this is my proposed itinerary so far but im open to suggestions to changes dates/travel times if you feel like I'm doing too much in ne day or travelling to far. My main concern is trying to determine whether I can make the most of the JR pass or whether I should buy individual tickets? Heres the route....:

6th Sept Arrive at Tokyo 8:40am
7th Sept Tokyo
8th Sept Tokyo (day trip to Nikko)
9th Sept Tokyo to Mount Fuji (am) (climb Fuji)
10th Sept Fuji to Matsumoto (pm)
11th Sept Alpine Tour (9hours) to Kanazawa City
12th Sept Kanazawa City
13th Sept Kanazawa to Shirakawa-go then to Takayama
14th Sept Takayama to Koyto (pm)
15th Sept Kyoto

17th Sept Kyoto
18th Sept Kyoto to Hiroshima (am) - Hiroshima to Nara (pm)
