>>2031350>>2031353everyone here, you forget we live in that "Futuristic Sci Fi future"
1) Get large power generator at base of mountain
2) Get several miles of high flexibility/rugged/wide temp rated electrical wire
3) Get some mountain climbing robots
Use the mountain climbing robots to climb up the mountain, collect those expensive and still viable as a industry gas canisters from the top of Everest Somewhat self paying for the whole operation, can even use the generators to run an oxygen generation operation to refill said canisters, sell, rinse, repeat.
Do the ass-wipe funeral home route and have extravagant funeral service operations.
1) You have death insurance so if you die in a humiliating way, they'll send their robot to make you NOT LOOK LIKE YOU DIED SUCKING YOUR DICK/FUCKING A LITERAL DONUT/ETC... Now you look like you died trying to give mouth to mouth to your fellow hiker.
2) Move those corpses out of the busy/currently used travel paths.(Lots of millionaires or billion/trillionaires WANT THEIR CORPSES TO REMAIN UP THERE)
3) Removal and Placement of Heirlooms because you couldn't possible go up/down WITH them on you.
4) Forbidden rich person jerky(Communist China is a MAJOR BUYER/WINK)
5) Identification of your corpse for purposes of inheritance/taxes/insurance(lets be real, several of these incredible wealthy individuals ARE STILL ALIVE, they wanted to appear dead in an area that is hard to prove/disprove this in/Rest are deader than a doorknob in a lava pit and their wills/testaments are being held up because of verifiability of their passing.
Bonus points for using unclimbable parts of the mountain to collect/recycle and drop off new canisters for climbers both up/down the mountain(for a hefty fee/some purists WON'T use this feature/oh I developed a torn lung lobe and don't care(nice cover))
