Near to heaven

When I saw this photo I felt forced to write about it. It is so impressive  that only a admiration in the field  could top the impression of roughness and majesty.. It is an extraordinary rock that seems to be like a tall , attractive ,proud woman. She seems to say " take me, if you are able to- face the life-treatened challenge  " If one imagines the narrow pathes and the upright walls, this woman can only be conquered by a resolute, well equipped mountainier who knows the danger and is ready to face the challenge.   If the snoe covered lady accept his ardous  efforts, she will give him the permission for a closer contact. Well selected grips and the experience of many years in mountain climbing, under conditions of levels above level 8, may give him a chance to arrive at the top. When he wants to conquer her, he has to pay a special attention to his own security. A tiny blink of an eye and all efforts may  drop down. Finally he will reach the snoecovered top and appreciates the beauty of the roundabout view and the intensive feeling of having conquered his 5th 7000 mountain. Here on the top - obove the clouds - freedom is indeed without borders . He feels nearer to heaven - and thanks God for the good ascent and makes a request for a healthy return.

Happily arrived at the base camp the climber is satisfied with his success and the healty return.

He is thankfull to all who have supported and encouraged him in phases of disappointment. Thanks to friends , carriers, and all those without their assistance - the victory hasn't been possible  and finally to the good weather conditions that enables it.
