Another spring, another
literal and figurative shit-show on Everest:
"Christopher John Kulish, 61, scaled the 29,035ft peak from the normal South-East Ridge route in the morning but died suddenly at South Col after descending from the summit, said Mira Acharya, a Nepal tourism department official.
The authorities did not say where he was from in the US. The cause of his death was unclear.
Most deaths on Everest this year have been attributed to exhaustion and tiredness, exacerbated because a crowded route to and from the summit has led to delays. The short climbing season ends this month."
Ban anything and everything having to do
with scaling Everest.
