On: Cloud atlas of Mars reveals an atmosphere unlike our own

Interesting take! I feel like factoring that in:

- low gravity: -1 difficulty

- less traction because low gravity: +1 difficulty

- supply chain from earth: +1 difficulty

- full spacesuit in addition to supplies: +1 difficulty

So overall my pseudo math: +2 difficulty

It has a very low slope angle of about 5%, so it would be really more like a hike, esp in such low gravity.

Unlike Mt Everest, a mountain formed by a collision of tectonic plates, Olympic is a shield volcano and they are the opposite to mountains in terms of slope angles.
