Good luck brother. A very good friend of mine attempted. She made it to base camp one when the earthquake hit.

From everything I read and seen about it, it basically seems like one of the biggest self indulgent acts on the planet today. What other peaks have you climbed?
Godspeed, I guess.

Climbing season is generally May.

If you're a Tiger fan, put something LSU up there. Or maybe chicken can send you a TD t-shirt and you can make a flag out of it.
Good luck.
Good luck.

I drove from Aspen to Independence Pass once drank two beers and got drunk it was awesome. The everest buzz would be epic.

I presume he meant he will start his acclimatization period in January, which would yield a March or April summit, but he wasn't clear.

No way you should do this in January. You are going to die. You know that right?

An alter with an elaborate troll planned?

If you aren't already a climber you won't have proper training. Period.
That mountain has killed legendary climbers. It's sad that it has become an attraction for tourists and wannabes.

I'm going to try it out. If I don't make it I'll try it again on a more traditional month.
