Is it really that steep? I rode down some doozies when I was a kid. As long as there aren't any trees in your way you should be fine.

I got the joke. I guess that KH hasn't seen pics of the Kangshung Face, which make his joke go from merely funny to absurdly amusing.Originally posted by Kuciwalker

It's pretty steep. IIRC if you get swept off the South Col it's about a 3km ride down. Worse than the Lhotse Face if my Everest knowledge hasn't completely deserted me.Originally posted by KrazyHorse

I don't really understand why they couldn't at least tried to help the man.

Hey, if so many people die on Mount Everest, and it's so easy to save them, why doesn't some doo-good Apolytoner start a rescue team, charge each climber a fee, and rescue them when they get in trouble!!!Resident Filipina Lady Boy Expert.Comment
