Heck, even Rainier at 14,410 kills folks every year. It killed six in one swoop last year. That mountain has over 100 fatalities for being just a speed bump compared to other peaks.

I suspect only the elite consider Rainier a speed bump. It has some serious routes on that mountain. Very glaciated and lots of deep crevasses.
