OMG!!! WE’RE ALL GOING TO DIE!!! eventually.
mountaineering tourists who have no business up there but run up there by the thousands, leave garbage and kick the snow to mud or even better; accidents there (over 200 dead who have not yet been recovered) are now worried about the mountain… all right hypocrites…
I’ll bet that you are fun to hangout with. Just kidding
Will they be moving their garbage along with the camp.
Brought to you by experts…. right? 🙂
Is this like the signs they had at American national parks saying this glacier will be gone by 2020, then they had to take down the sign because the glacier is still there and just as large?
