climbing mountains is supposed to be fun!
NO! Climbing should be bad ass.

Also, +1 for dumping the water out on top of a peak. I do the same. It is really bad for your knees to hike down with all that weight. Also mixing up work outs is great. Sometimes jogging up the hill. Sometimes carry water up it, or use a stair stepper on different work-out programs.
