The article does point out that this is exacerbated by the very small windows of opportunity when it comes to weather. Meaning there are only a few days of the year where conditions become acceptable and then everyone rushes on those days. The rest of the time, there is nobody on the moutain. Would that taint the experience if I were a climber? Probably so. But as far as the mountain is concerned these days are few and far apart. I wonder though: since there is a lot of tourism for people who just have money and are not strong-skilled alpinists, are there other ascents attempted when conditions are only semi-favorable and where there are only a few brave souls on the mountain due to the difficulty?
