Because of people like this, hikers (of all skill levels) drawn to a dangerous area by a romanticized story, the bus has been removed to stop people from trying to reach it and needing rescue or recovery.

This. This is why I never have any sympathy for the "hikers" who go out onto the ass end of nowhere without even a GPS. This guy even spent the money to get the whole-plane parachute. Which, I might add, is why he got home that day, and not have become a statistic. Although I wish he had noted the first shots were file footage of the emergency chute tests, not of his actual plane that day. Internet People are not known for their intelligence.

Sat phones can be rented pay-per-use, for virtually nothing. If you don't use it, it's a pittance. If something happens, broken leg, whatever, emergency crews can come straight to you.

I have no problem whatsoever with the government saving your life. That's what it's there for. My issue is with the huge searches due to adult "victims" negligence and stupidity.

I was confused that the dog, trained to guide lost hikers back to the trail, didn't actually guide her back to the trail.

I hate fucking Marmots -- they eat battery cables and brake lines (yes, really). They're a plague up at Mt. Rainer if you park your car overnight. You'll see cars covered with blue tarps held down by rocks in the parking lots of the park: those are hikers trying to keep the fuckers from eating anything rubber on the car.

So awesome.
Firstly that someone did this.
Secondly that other people had the same Hitch Hikers Guide to the Galaxy thoughts that I did.
One of my favorite parts of the book.

That's right. These guys got the ash, but the hikers closer to the peak weren't so lucky. In the description, Kuroda Terutoshi writes
