I am very much reminded this day of...
"I think that one of the lessons of climbing is perseverance, having a vision and continuing on in spite of obstacles, putting one foot in front of another steadily until you get to your goal. Learning that lesson in mountaineering helps you apply it to all other activities." A. Blum
Further truths from the wild places... DSD
Thanks as well my Friend for the Alaska image.

The challenges of the wilderness are directly related and coincidentental with the remainder of life experience. Conquering one makes the other easier. Growth and experience in one allows the same in the other. It is a powerful symbiotic relationship. Of course, if you do something incredibly stupid, risky or misinformed the outcome becomes substantially less predictable.
Beautiful pictures. The interpretation of cloud formations has a technical component and an artistic motivation that spurs the imagination. Your post suggests further potential for wilderness imagination. The point is well made. Perhaps it is true. The more you learn: the less you know.
