thanks for BA
lumberjackslam · 41-45, M
@wildbill83 I would actually be more impressed with your plan.

@TheOneyouwerewarnedabout it's more dangerous now as they let more than the daily quota of people go up
deadgerbil · 22-25
Would be cool to do. Would pass a lot of dead bodies tho or even join them lol
meggie · F
@deadgerbil that is true. Apoarently they use the dead bodies as markers.
nah I lay in my comfy bed watching people slog their hearts out...and then I dream of puppies
DrWatson · 70-79, M
Nope. I do enjoy climbing relatively "easy " mountains, where you just have to walk along a trail. That can be strenuous enough if the trail gets steep. I have no desire to "graduate" from that level of mountain climbing.
DrWatson · 70-79, M
@4meAndyou That name rings a bell. I wonder whether I have climbed it. Where is it?

I have climbed Mt. Washington.
4meAndyou · F
@DrWatson New Hampshire. ☺️
DrWatson · 70-79, M
@4meAndyou I don't remember the name of every mountain I have climbed, but I have a feeling I have climbed that one. I can't imagine why I would recognize the name if I had not.

Heck no, I hate, [b]hate[/b] cold weather....
Matt85 · 36-40, M
Not really. That would be dangerous and boring, except for the view you must get at the top.
scorpiolovedeep · 46-50, M
It is already full of junk left by mountaineers.
Let us keep nature clean.
Umile · 41-45, F
Climbing mount everest ?

SMH.

How many times im gonna havearest in between.
I really don’t plan on killing myself but if I do, I dont want to do it in -40 degree weather.
Fairydust · F
No thanks, sometimes it’s a struggle to get up the stairs 🤣
A guy I went to college with is climbing it right now.
I would love to if I could afford it.
It takes quite a bit of money and time training to make the climb.
Then the cost of sherpas and a guide.
Permits alone could run into the hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Insurance for an accident or emergency.
It’s not a cheap endeavor
ArishMell · 70-79, M
Even gentle rock-climbing and exposed hill walks such as found in parts of England are out for me - no head for heights - but I do admire those who can do it.

Tragically Mt. Everest does attract far too many who can climb but for whom this one is too severe.
Virgo79 · 61-69, M
Ill pass🥶
likesnatural · 70-79, M
Not me. I read a book years ago about a man that did. Climbing over dead people, trash everywhere, and total disregard for humanity. I'm not interested.
Neoerectus · M
Too much litter and too many corpses.

"I know! Lets climb a really high and trashed cemetary!"
Musicman · 61-69, M
That would be a hard NO! It is far to cold and I am not remotely in shape for anything like that.
Not at all.

Beautiful to look at, but it's an ascent with a notorious reputation.
Scribbles · 36-40, F
No. It always looked dreadfully cold. Not my idea of a good climb.
SW-User
No, Firle Beacon is enough for me.
meggie · F
@SW-User i am not far from there. Lovely view.
SW-User
@meggie
And so do I🫣
deadteddy · 26-30, F
No thanks, I’ll watch 4K videos on YouTube about it
ShadowDancer · 41-45, M
No, it's too cold and doesn't have any stairs
Teslin · M
Mt. Washington, yes
Everest, noooo.
meggie · F
@Lostpoet it is very costly to do so. Not many can afford it.
Lostpoet · M
@meggie And it's cold and even the best most experienced climbers sometimes die.
meggie · F
@Lostpoet it's best it stays as a dream
4meAndyou · F
Not me! The ex's boss climbed Everest though, and gave the ex a photo of himself at the top, which the ex brought home and put on the fridge for a while.
Raaii · 22-25, F
at this point it's more about money than skills
And the risks are comparatively less so anyone here with sufficient money and a fit body can give a try
Torsten · 36-40, M
no, i dont see anything special about it when its such a common thing now for people to go climbing it
Yes , but dream it will stay as i do t like the cold climates :p
SkeetSkeet · 100+, F
These people have time to climb past dead bodies but don't give af about bring them back down
Slade · 56-60, M
@SkeetSkeet How much good would it do them? 🤷
Umile · 41-45, F
@SkeetSkeet good point
@SkeetSkeet It’s hard enough ascending and descending on your own. Carrying a corpse is completely impractical no matter how much one might care
smiler2012 · 56-60
@meggie 🤔not esecially as i hate heights lol
SW-User
I used to, quite a lot!
pdockal · 56-60, M
No, what an absolute waste of time rooted in nothing but pure, [i]meaningless[/i] EGO

All climbers should be banned from the tallest peaks like this, there is so much trash, so many dead bodies up there, and the whole thing requires other people besides the climbers to risk their lives too, for nothing more than some idiot climber's own VANITY
