      Support global warming! Let the earth clean up Everest poop the natural way! Decomposition in situ: transport costs more emissions!

      The thing that makes Everest dangerous is the air pressure combined with everything else, that’s why it’s such a long slow ascent, you have to acclimatize so your lungs don’t implode.

      In the summer the summit temperature is about the same as a bad Canadian prairie winter day

      It already is a simple hike, it just depends on weather if it’s dangerous or not.

      80 year olds have climbed everest. So have 15 year olds.

        That 80 year old is a mountaineer. The youngest, at 13, went with three sherpas to help.

        It isn’t a simple hike, but since you seem to think it is- let’s see the pics from when you made the trip.

          Ah yes, I just talked about how stupid it is to climb everest, so I definitely did that.

            No, you just ignorantly judged something you’ve never done as easy.
