"Touching Something Beautiful..."



"No climber, active or inactive, young or old, can help but look back to one of their earlier climbs with a sense that they had touched something beautiful and elusive, and found movement upon rock and ice as creation... In these remembrances most climbers find necessary definition for the rest of their lives." J. Waterman


One of my most favorite quotes... DSD

When we started doing whatever it is we do: climbing, hiking, travelling, our early, formative years were full of eagerness to see the world and experience everything. Perhaps we lost some of that the more we did it, and we strive to regain that youthful enthusiasm.
