Why don't people Climbing Mountains use parachutes?

A lot of people die while descending the mountain. Seems like it would be way easier just to jump from the top and parachute


You can easily parachute back to basecamp.

They could easily pack 50 percent less gear with the time they would save by using a parachute

Wouldn't they have a decent risk it catching the side of a mountain on the way down?
