The Death Couloir - Mont Blanc
Or not. Seems they’ll be covered in rocks naturally within days. Leave them. No SAR, you get to feed wildlife or become scenery. Just like Everest. A few bodies might make a good deterrent for anyone on the fence or over confident.
Reminds me of when I was in New Zealand. Our flight out of Milford was cancelled for low clouds, and some Japanese tourists took the plane sightseeing around Milford fjord. They crashed into the fjord, hundreds of meters deep. The family wanted to send robots to recover the bodies, but I couldn’t fathom (no pun intended) why. For a fraction of the cost the entire family could visit them in New Zealand every few years for eternity….no brainer!
I’ll never understand you humans.
No, I'm all in favor of Morons--
However, I'm not in favor of the amazing people in SAR putting their lives on the line to recover the smears lefts on rocks that used to be these people. Living in WA, we have a lot of "really wants to kill you" wilderness here, including North Cascades Nat'l Park and Olympic Nat'l Park. Every single year, someone's predated body needs to be pulled out of the middle of one of these places by either a helo crew or the poor bastards who have to hike a bazillion miles to pack out what's left of Chuckles.
The number of SAR people who've died here is sobering. Every single one of them could have just walked away, but they went into danger's way to save people too stupid to save themselves. Sometimes their reward is to be spit on, like the ranger at Yellowstone who was berated by the father of a kid who dived into a hot spring after his dog (by "kid", I mean adult kid, not Timmy). The father wanted his kid's body recovered, no matter what. The ranger had to explain that the kid completely dissolved about five minutes after he fell in. The father then refused to speak to the ranger any further.
This shit doesn't happen in a vacuum. Someone's going to have to look at these human bird droppings and see that shit in their sleep for the rest of their lives.

No he's not. He's depressed... pining for the fjords
If You Were Thinking Japan Needs an Anti-Tsunami Wall...
It's a bay right next to a fault line where the surrounding fjords will focus any incoming tsunami onto them. They could easily rebuild up in the hills instead of down in the most vulnerable area.

The Death Swing. You've never seen anything like it.
>> ^Confucius:
so.....wtf is the rope tied to????
IIRC, a suspended rope swing is attached out in the middle of a high tension cable stretched across the valley/gorge/fjord.
(edit) Actually, after viewing again, Ghostly is completely correct.

I won an award for designing Norway, you know. Especially for creating the crinkly edges and the fiddly bits around the fjords.

The word "fjord" is just about all it has in common with what Norway has.
This is Norway
Aside from the skis, fjords and a slight difference in color of the itchy clothes, I'm having a tough time finding the difference between Norway and Sweden. When exactly did the capital of Sweden move from Norway to Stockholm? Gotta check Wikipedia on that.
