It's cool technology and the images are so cool to explore.

The media has played it up as a pretty big shit show, which can be debated from a lot of different perspectives. Seems like a lot more people climbing it, but last year's climbing season was especially short, so there was a higher concentration of climbers in a shorter amount of time. Nonetheless, awesome to check out. Thanks.
