Yeah, its pretty hard work, and not particularly rewarding. Highest I have been is 19,000. That was bad enough. Rather do it on a ski lift these days. :)

I've never understood mountain climbing

On the other hand, I got interested in Mountain climbing though I have not done any real climb yet. It seems lot of fun (actually it is much better for you brain and mind then just your body), I do want to start with climbing Mount Hood this year or next.

That'll get you a frosty reception.

I've been to about 39000. But that was in a plane... :)

Everest holds the bodies of at least 200 climbers who have died in their attempts to scale the mountain, say experts. Well, thar's your problem right there. -Richard

Because it's probably one of the hardest thing to do when you're into hiking/climbing. I think it's not the most "technical" climb that exists, but because of the height it makes it very difficult.

Watched code never compiles.
