I wouldn’t call my previous summits HIGH altitude, whatsoever: Rainier, Whitney, Denali. And despite all those being above 3mi above sea level and glaciated, I never experienced an avalanche. Now, I’ve been in crevasses! They’re gorgeous!!!! And bottomless!!!! But that was just training - not being ‘swallowed’ by a monster you didn’t see-THAT would be scary!!!

These peaks are beautiful and great and only allows the great ones to climb. The most dangerous mountain is the mountain of Ego. Evryone has one but noone wants to climb it. 😁

      I believe many people, some wealthy and after success financially, find themselves unchallenged or spiritually hungry. Mountain climbing is a sport with as much ego per participant than any other. Possibly more. No doubt many yearn for the glory and IG photo from a summit.
      It's a shame that many attempt it without the prerequisite experience and are maimed or killed because of it.
      They don't even know enough to question their guides when there may be more risk than they're prepared for.
