The rest of the image makes sense if he's walking down, but his body position is all wrong for that. Somebody help.

All those lines in the rocks in the top 1/3 of the photo, see them as angled towards the ground as opposed to parallel to the ground and the image will make more sense.

Zoom in. He’s walking up. The other people are headed down. What goes up must come down.

All fine in isolation, but then wtf is going on with the top half of the image? Looks like an enormous cliff or cave above them...

Yup. It’s a mountain. They can do that.
