Addressing the names on the papers, Thaddeus told the group to not leave trash on the mountain in future

He wrote: "[Whoever] you are, we never know if this is a new trend for taking a pictures of your names (or other people's names) on the mountain, but please bring this [down] next time. Don't just simply leave it up here (sic)."

"To you people out there, if you guys [plan] to scale the mountain please don't do this. What's going up have to going down. Take nothing but photographs, keep nothing but memories, leave nothing but footprint (sic)," he added.
