      Options for would-be rescuers are few at such extreme altitudes. They worry about their own survival, knowing that extra time exposed to the elements can prove fatal. http://nyti.ms/2DiKxDV pic.twitter.com/blmRzdbXTm

      Climbers have also paid tens of thousands of dollars, perhaps devoted many years of their lives, to this one day, and might be reluctant to abort it all for a stranger in need of help http://nyti.ms/2DiKxDV pic.twitter.com/y9SjndtmO1

          I’m not sure how to feel about this. The only way I can justify this is...if he was already dead, these hikers did not know he was up there, and it was too dangerous to bring him down. But i feel I will be wrong if I read this article, so I’m not to keep from being angry

          You should read the article. It’s an incredible read, but still heartbreaking. Many people die on Everest and rescues/recoveries are often impossible or too dangerous. The sherpas tried to get them to turn back, they refused.

          That's what climbing Mt Everest is like. Read #JohnKrakauers book #IntoThinAir. It's a deadly place. Many people have died there. Most bodies can't be retrieved.

          Because they didn’t - arguably couldn’t - move a dead body?

          It’s not even an argument. Every climber knows that there is no help up there and your body well most likely remain there until someone launches a recovery mission.

          Everest is turning into a mad and selfish tourist circus, with basic empathy and esprit de corps no longer an expectation in mountaineering. This @nytimes article is a solid look at the mockery of what climbing Everest has become.https://twitter.com/nytimes/status/943611416103317508 …

          It is the way. You would understand if you were climbing at such altitudes, when any wind could erase life in a trice.
