He is tired. He has no climbing gear, no jacket, no source of light except the setting sun and rising moon. He carries only the clothes he is wearing, the boots on his feet, and the "hard, durable crust" of bread he tied into his belt that morning. Back at the pine tree where he'd slept the night before, there's a small satchel with a cup, a notebook and more bread. No blanket, no tent and no stove. He is in the midst of a three-day journey across rugged terrain. And now he has to find his way down that same mountain by some other route than the harrowing one he just scrambled up. Whether such a route even exists, he does not know." https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57e19d9ed2b85735aafc38dc/1474937557307-DDNFYEHJ4A3DB7R4OW21/image-asset.png Alpinist "There are joggers here, and roses, and pug-nosed dogs on the leashes of people I'll never know.
