A leisurely read of last weekend’s HTSI was ruined when I came to Amanda Wakeley’s polar plunge article (May 18). How can she consider herself an “ecologically conscious” skier? No amount of wealth should allow a hedonistic minority to infiltrate and pollute these near-pristine environments. I doubt a disinfectant boot dip before skiing does little more than assuage a pang of conscience. Amanda states in her article that “more people have summited Everest than have ski-mountaineered on Antarctica”. Perish the thought that the rise in final frontier tourism reverses this statistic.
