😂 Muppets!
Oh they do exist! I’ve been up Ben N a few times and I’ve see all sorts. Trainers, mini skirts, push chairs etc.
Good job they didn’t walk off the edge!

I started to climb it a few years back, became concerned about my dog and my wife (who were with me!) so called it and turned back.
Trip advisor for Everest
Went with friends for the bank holiday weekend and was not told of the long walk to the base camp. On arriving there found out that there was no Wetherspoons as had been promised. Went up the mountain on Saturday morning planning to camp at Deathzone (My daughter was looking forward to something like Wacky warehouse but it didn't turn out to be that kind of Deathzone ) Unfortunately we didn't make it as my JJB walking boots froze to my toes and our go outdoors go anywhere tent blew away (I will be seeking a refund) I am struggling to type this as i now only have 1 finger left because my Amazon cosy warm gloves with the 5 star rating weren't as good as i thought. I may struggle sending them back as my fingers are still in them. Wont be returning !The happiest of people don't necessarily have the best of everything;

Girl in high heels when I climbed it. passed her early in the climb (about 20 mins IIRC) ... never saw her again. Hopefully she saw sense and turned back.

Aerialmark, do you mean that there is not a cable car ride up to the top of Everest?
I think you should have a few words with Everest owners and point out the business opportunity that they are missing out on.

I think a Go outdoors store and "a Nisa Local " would do a bomb at base camp.The happiest of people don't necessarily have the best of everything;
