My orthopedist has climbed Everest, and spends at least two or three months every year climbing mountains all over the world. He enjoys it, so why not?

I don’t have a problem with doing it, even if I do have a problem with the necessity of rescue teams who sometimes have to get involved.

It is one thing if you go out for a hike and get lost in the woods and need rescuing.

It is quite another when you engage in something where you are rappelling up the side of a 15,000 foot mountain and they have to call in some rescue jumpers.

Even still, I accept it. We rescue people who need it...:)
