Why doesn’t some rich person put permanent ropes and lights on Everest and K2?

Helicopter has landed on Everest. Use drones and robots to do the hard work.

Everest is a really ugly mountain.

And an even more terrible movie.

"is just despair"

Reminder, we don't write like idiots here.

Some sort to cable suspended tram could be built, like they have in the Alps. When your wheelchair bound auntie can reach the top of Everest a lot of the prestige of climbing it will be lost.

A ten-foot high replica at ground level of the peak will do quite well, thank you very much, particularly if there is a professional photographer at hand to supply a stunning shot of my achievement of gaining its summit . . . . via the stairs built into its back.

Don't give them ideas. It already looks like the lines at Disney World up there. Not to mention the garbage and the feces

Build a duplicate in Florida.

The challenge is the point.

because that would ruin all the fun! The annual Everest cull is always fascinating

Everest season is about 5 weeks a year, why would they want that tacky shit there the rest of the year?
