It's a popular extreme ski and snowboard target. Miura was a pioneer but others have gotten 'better' descents in; Karnicar's 2000 summit to base camp run is notable.

Snowboarders have also tried it, Siffredi got the first full-ish descent but he wasn't satisfied with the route he took so the next year he went back to try for a narrow 500 m long couloir off the summit, where he disappeared in bad weather.

The video released of certain runs isn't even cool, they just side slip down because obviously if they take a fall they're dead.

I was checking out Kick just to see what was on there and found this dude called Ice Poseidon who is live-streaming his entire hike to Everest base camp. It blows my mind that this is even possible. I haven’t read these threads in a few years but I immediately thought of you guys and wanted to share:

Ice Poseidon is one of the biggest known dipshits in streaming

his fans hate him more than anyone and constantly try and get him killed so if he's on the mountain i'd stay off
