This is so intriguing to me. I would absolutely climb a mountain to retrieve some trash, though.
“The “death zone” of the world’s highest garbage dump — Mount Everest — is about to be cleaned up for the first time since Edmund Hillary conquered the 29,035-foot peak almost 60 years ago. Global warming has exposed the more than 2 tons of trash that had been buried under snow.
This week, 20 Nepali climbers are headed to the “death zone,” the region above 26,246 feet, to pick up more than 2 tons of climbing gear left behind, Reuters tells us. Some of the trash — mostly empty oxygen bottles, gas canisters, torn tents, ropes and utensils — dates to Hillary’s time and has been exposed by melting snow.” (April 18, 2010)
