The poor mountain climbers have been having a hell of a year, it seems.
Now, state lawmakers in Oregon want to require them to carry little tracking devices everytime they go up there so we don't waste even more money looking for these bozos when they get lost.
My heart goes out to families who lose a loved one in this fashion and I can in no way compete with the athleticism of folks who engage in this leisure activity. But we have to remember that this is still a choice-driven sport these people are participating in. They're not out getting lost on a mountain while searching for food for the family.
Make them waive or take out insurance on the recovery costs.
Selah.
