Nepal may tell aspiring climbers: Beginners keep out

The Guardian is reporting that officials in Nepal are weighing a ban on novice climbers on Mt. The proposed change comes as a new movie, “Everest,” focuses adventure travelers’ attention on the world’s highest peak. Author Jon Krakauer, who wrote about the mountaineering tragedy in “Into Thin Air,” has called the movie “total bull” for its handling of the facts surrounding the failed expedition. Every year an estimated 600 climbers attempt to reach the summit, fueling a lucrative industry and bringing problems such as overcrowding, the Guardian reported.
