However, I have to ask if this set of rocks is worth the risks?  I know 
mountain climbers die in their efforts and there are many other very 
dangerous "sport" activities, but should we as a hobby sanction placing our 
fellow hams into a place where the slightest bad weather, lightning strike, 
or just a nasty fall would have been an easy-to-happen disaster.  How would 
we feel as hams if the worst had happened there?  How much should we depend 
on LUCK? I think anyone can go where ever they please, but not with the 
sanction and official stamp of our great avocation.

Maybe it is time to re-think the DXCC status of this place?

Quite a few DX.-ers are now focusing on IOTA as a more attractive
alternative than DXCC now..
Rocks like BS7 will still be dangerous, of course !
