Annapurna, the loneliest summit in the world. probably because for every two climbers that try to reach her summit one becomes a permanent resident
“Mountains are not stadiums where I satisfy my ambition to achieve, they are the cathedrals where I practice my religion…I go to them as humans go to worship. From their lofty summits I view my past, dream of the future and, with an unusual acuity, am allowed to experience the present moment…my vision cleared, my strength renewed. In the mountains I celebrate creation. On each journey I am reborn.” - Anatoli Boukreev died December 25 1997 on this mountain.
wow… a truly amazing film about the search for happiness and sustainable resources for those unborn
