    tbf, I've never contributed to any sponsored climb of Mount Everest. This cannot come a moment too soon. Stop the wannabe's in their tracks. Provide some decent homework for serious professionals too.

    I've never done any hill walking or mountain climbing. If I did, the closest to it would be the Mournes or the Curlew Mountains near Boyle.

    It seems like a way of getting revenue for Nepal. Requiring a 6500m Nepali peak to have been climbed instead of accepting Pakistani, Peruvian, Argentine, Indian, Kyrgiz or Chinese peaks

    Interesting how someone with zero experience feels the need to celebrate this.
