The backdrop of the memorialized monuments couldn’t be more beautiful and yet they’re contrasted by the sobering reality of how fragile life is while climbing high above the clouds.

Walking amongst the fallen, from the common person to the most legendary Western and Sherpa mountaineer, leaves you humbled and introspective, thinking of those you love and all you’ve left behind.
Most were driven by a dream, inspired by a mission and tragically their lives were cut short in pursuit of the crown of the tallest mountain on Earth.

We walk humbly and quietly, paying our respects as we look upwards to the journey ahead carrying those we love with us.
