Spandex, it's a privilege, not a right.

Is there really a handrail/cable on the trail to the summit?

There is a stretch of handrail on the way up the 99 switchbacks.

98, not 99.

The cable handrail is on the stretch between switchbacks 46 and 47.

There is a hidden switchback, available to cognoscenti, that allows one to get 10 feet higher at Trail Crest. It's scary, though, to be dangling in mid-air like Wile E Coyote.

They look like they might be twins, by the way.

How long would a nude person live on top of Everest? (Even in good weather!)

I have been nude on the Whitney summit, in summer. It's pretty nice up there in July and August when there is no wind. Several times, I have done the entire hike up and back with nothing other than shoes, shorts, and sunglasses. It depends a lot on the wind.

Too cold at night for sure, though.

Everest, yeah right.

I thought it was fun! They're happy about it! Let them be happy about it.

But jeezz, are you people obsessed upon looks, or what...
