Everest

I'd have thought it would have all been covered with snow.??? Apparently not.

Not heard of global warming.

Yes enyam. My point was forsaking a summit attempt (eg 5 hours for the last 100m vertical climb) if a fellow person needs comfort in their last minutes / hours slightly lower down the upper slopes.

I guess there are unwritten rules and you go full in knowledge this is so.

Mr Dubya. No offense intended, but I have a theory.

I've always had mountain climbers down as bored cyclists. Are you a cyclist????

 

[EddieM]

A great challenge, but rather you than me? I had altitude sickness in Val Thorens for 2 days!!

I heard a few months ago that a planned 'clean-up' of Everest was being implemented.

Local sherpas are taking a skip type thing with them, to clean up all the bodies and general sh*t left behind from thoughtless climbers.

They gonna do it in the summer.

They`ll be tensing themselves for the sights they`ll encounter

Why do they leave the bodies up there? They can fly helicopters to the top ffs.

Dumb asses's.
