Spirit of the Mountain

"It is not the mountain we conquer, but ourselves. " - Edmund Hillary.
Ephemeral magic of a perfect morning, under winter gilding, the delicate vapours of the mountain spirit rise beyond the peaks. The extreme mountaineer makes of the ascent a poem. He climbs the summits as a nomad with a bohemian soul. As a pilgrim from the peaks, he is familiar with the heavens. Keep the spirit of the mountain and remain respectful. (Françoise Sagon)
