And you can't prevent stupidity, no matter how many signs or ropes or railings you put up. These people who attempt climbs way beyond their experience are adults and need to take responsibility for their own decisions, however bad they are. The only problem is when stupid kicks in, tax payers have to fund search and rescue (or body recovery) missions that put even more lives at risk. Mountains carry a certain amount of risk, and that's what attracts a lot of people.
