If you have this attitude, may I thoughtfully suggest that you start reading Accidents in North American Mountaineering and have a little humbler attitude about safety.

I ran the park service SAR team for over 5 years. I've packed more than my fair share of climbers into helicopters and dealt with the grieving partners and family members as well as being involved in the accident analysis.

The accidents that I responded to like this one could have been prevented 100% by closing the system. Period.
