    Yeah seriously, just limit the amount of people who can climb.

    I personally believe that anyone should be allowed to go on a suicide mission should they chose to, whether they be rich or poor.

      How? Unless you live in Napal, it’s not cheap to get to. It also takes at least some amount of planning and skill. Far from the hardest climb out there, but you can’t be an idiot about it.

      The remoteness alone is already limiting who can go there. El Capitan is less remote, but is a legendarily difficult climb, and that may get around the same number of people per year.
