What "gets" me is the fun the press of the non-climbing sort have had with the ideas of ladders no Everest. No comment otherwise.

Excuse me Sir, do you happen to have any Grey Poupon?

I might, I just might. (reaching into pack) Will this fulfill your requirements?

That photo and accompanying article are featured in National Geographic, June 2013.

Reflecting on that pic, I am shocked there are not more fatalities on Everest.

Serious comment on that image-That is insane at 28k+ feet! Looks like Monadnock on Columbus day.

Sarcastic comment - Screw the ladders, install a high speed quad!

For folks who might be interested, there is also another Everest piece, "The Manic Mountain," in the June 3 issue of 'The New Yorker.'

Except for the dead bodies and elevation that sounds like Franconia Ridge on Labor Day weekend.

More like Mt Monadnock on Columbus day weekend!
