The mountains are dispassionate and honest teachers. Each climb instills a discipline, a focus and fuels a passion for life...
The more you live the greater you risk.

  "Whereof one cannot speak, thereof one must be silent."

An Image

When descending Mt McKinley, we saw a spectacular dawn over the mountains ... I would ordinarily be stuck behind a desk at that time.

I realised that at every moment somewhere in the world there is a great dawn; that "there is no such thing as an ordinary day" that no money can compensate you for the time that you have now.
