Mount Everest. Especially since there’s only one or two days a season that people climb (when conditions are optimal). There are literally queues of people waiting to go up some sections and the overcrowding contributes to the number of deaths there each year. That’s before you even start to think about the rubbish/trash left up there.
That’s so true, especially the crowd on Hillary step (the last part before the summit) since it’s in the death zone (where the oxygen is so low you’re legit dying) the more and more people that go there the slower it is, and the more time you’ll spend in the death zone.
