“Let’s not mention the tons of trash left by hikers trekking Mt. Everest. ;( “
In defense of those fanatics, dead men can’t carry out their trash. The AT passes through northwestern NJ; the lowest point of the trail is about an hour north of me (at Bear Mountain NY).
I don’t see the allure of such a hobby.
Of course they probably wouldn’t see the allure of the things I like either.
