Surely the $4k fine on a trip that costs six figures to set up will convince people to bring their trash down.

1 minute off your official summitting time for each pound of trash you haul back

Reading about Everest makes me really want to go hike to base camp, then go climb Denali or something on a different occasion. Plenty of actual mountaineering and beautiful views, much lower chance of my brain melting in the thin air.

Yeah, I can see the attraction in getting to base camp and hiking around to see astounding scenery, but actually attempting summitting just seems like weird masochism and a pointless gamble for your life & safety. And that's besides all the weird implications about pollution and exploitation.

Coming down from altitude is fun. I'd been living above 3600m for a couple of months, and ended up at a hostel in Miami with a decent sized pool. I think I could swim five laps underwater without an issue, a month later I could maybe handle half that.

I knew somebody who lived up in the mountains, they handily won a city marathon one place they were visiting at just a few hundred feet above sea level.

I like the fisheye effect, it makes me want to jump off the mountain and fall to my death slingshot my way around the planet to the strains of the Mario Galaxy theme

I just got back from Everest again, it's getting kinda lame now, like way too mainstream

How did your PPD (poops per day) situation fare? Were you hitting that two fifty g threshold?
