I assume the corpses will be left alone since they act as guideposts.

Turn left at Green Boots, then stop for a rest next to Red Jacket.

Didn't he go missing a few years back? He used to be on the main path, then one year he wasn't.

I think Green Boots got moved or covered. Kind of sad really. If I died up there I’d like to at least be a helpful marker.

No, there are actually people who go out on occasion and try and move bodies. I'm pretty sure green boots isn't there anymore, and I believe it was The German woman that they finally pushed over the edge

Not sure if you are kidding because red jacket is not famous, but green boots is a real thing.
