[QUOTE="Twigg, post: 1162534, member: 27619"] [B]I'm thinking that someone is trolling this thread, and with this comment I am out of discussing it further.[/B] Between 1953 and March 2012, Everest had been climbed a recorded 5650 times. These days, in an average season, it is climbed about 400 times with many of those climbers being Sherpas on repeat missions. About 200 people a year pay for, and successfully summit Everest. The rest are Expedition staff and Sherpas, and folk who pay but don't reach the top. Even at 400, that would be 1 every 22 hours, not 20 per hour. We IBA guys may need a little introspection, from time to time ... and Kate has plenty of time for that, but if you want a reasoned discussion, please don't make stuff up, it doesn't reflect well.
