why

Why?

Nepalese here, wouldn't do that shit if i were you.
Also i think i read the same thing in an Jow Forums thread like last week..

You gonna piss on top of it to claim it?

are you going with an expensive tour guide?
how much shit have you seen at base camp?
what level of cardio fitness do you have at sea level?
have you climbed any other 8000ers?

>be 90 year old sherpa
>climb everest 10 times a day as part of morning routine
>white people always come trying to climb everest so they can tweet about how fit they are
>carry their bags for them the whole way and guide them up the mountain
>have to stop constantly because they're too stupid to breath and keep getting dizzy
>have to carry stupid foreigner back down the mountain because he wasted all his energy yelling at the top and crying to the sky about how he made his grandpa proud
>foreigner takes a week to recover, all the while posting photos and writing a 10 page blog about "his journey"
>wait for more white people to show up and repeat

how do they have wifi on the mountain?

In the event you end up not dying, take some of the trash down with you, I hear a lot of people litter trash all over Everest, that's not their bodies, you know.

Also, when you die, can I have your stuff?

Yeah I'm going with a good American company.

I haven't left for basecamp yet.

At this point my endurance is pretty fucking good. I climbed Denali in pretty good shape in June. Recomped then got back to endurance training November. Been doing as much as I can since January

Haven't climbed an 8ker yet but have done 6/7 summits.

Satellite connection. But to clarify I'm not on Everest, I'm flying to Nepal tomorrow night.

This guy made it 200m from the top without oxygen. Climbing Everest is not an achievement in 2018. That said, I'm sure people will feign interest when you bring it up at parties so don't worry, you'll be able to convince yourself that you accomplished something meaningful.

Post pics at /out/ if you make it back alive

>I'm paying a ridiculous amount of money to add to the garbage piles at basecamp and not contributing to the local economy because most of the trip cost is going to a Western based guide company

FTFY

Non-alpinist shitters get fucked

If you can't get down the mountain then you are left to die. Anybody trying to save you dies as well. Nobody bothers to bring trash or the dead and dying down the mountain because it's basically impossible. Popsicle people are a common type of trail marker on Everest.

Have fun climbing the biggest volcano.

What do you want your corpse's trailmark nickname to be in the likely event you die?

Will you fuck a sherpa woman?
