"Mountains give us the
opportunity to see ourselves, face-to-face. We must conduct ourselves in
the lower regions with the knowledge of what we have learnt above." (Rafe
Parker - Expedition Advisor) "Don't forget: the best climber is the one who comes back into the valley healthy and happy." (Peter Brabeck - Expedition Advisor) "If you want to run with the big dogs, you have to learn to piss on the big trees." (via Kenton Cool & Bo Parfet - Summitteers) |
