I've made a huge mistake.
You can no longer sell an arm and a leg to fund an Everest climb.

Perhaps, despite the protestations of the Denver state government claiming the steps are exactly as they were, the steps had disappeared?

Oh man, Daniele Nardi died with him. For those who don't know the name, Chris Warner did a Google Talk about his experience climbing up K2 in 2007 and one of the teams that summited alongside his team was an Italian team led by Daniele Nardi. Chris Warner did not have very nice things to say about him.
This one?

Make K2 permits cheap.
Limit the number of Everest permits. Half are made available at a fixed price through a lottery system, only to those who have made proper summit attempts as other peaks first (ie, permits for actual climbers). The other half are auctioned off to the highest bidder (permits for rich dentists).

Snowdon - the deadly tourist trap? Or the Gairngorms for somewhere that manages to occasionally kill the SQEP.
