The mountains have been scaled. All of them. We've been there, website seen what's to be seen. It's done, it's over. Just leave these grandiose wonders alone rather than destroying the natural beauty in the name of an ego boost.
They should install a cable car or furnicular and let people go straight to the top any time of year. Tax it and give the money to the locals. Put a nice restaurant up there too. That would be cleaner and more practical than what we have now.
Destroying a natural wonder in the name of impressing your buddies doesn't fall under that.
That's it. Go out unto the world and do with that as you will
Going skydiving, auto racing, sailing, working out... All pointless if I'm understanding this logic.
The idea that such a subjective criteria should be used is more offensive than the hubris.
The US national parks are a great example of how that works.
