How irresponsible is it to try to summit a peak where there's a 40% chance I'll need to get rescued out of? Planning to sumit capitol peak next weekend by myself. I got myself some rescue insurance just in case, I wanna feel bad but I mean, I'm paying for it right? They won't be doing it for free. I'm unprepared experience wise, not gear wise, my gear has been carefully selected and I'll be carrying some high end gear and a locator beacon, so I doubt the elements will kill me, I also know the basics of camping and hiking, I'm just now sure how much of a technical hike this will be. I'll report back next Monday, if I don't make it out you'll probably hear from me in the local news.
