This is one of my very favorite stories so far. It takes a deep dive into the Heart of Darkness. The age-old question of why people climb has piqued my interest for years. Why do people leave loved ones and risk everything for 15 minutes on a tiny summit? You'll hear from mountaineers, my friends, and world-class climbers like Ed Viesturs, Alan Arnette, Dr. Jon Kedrowski, Sean Swarner, Paul Perea, Noah McKelvin, and others.
