The conditions couldn’t be more extreme, the chance of success is minuscule, the gear is prohibitively expensive and every step can prove deadly… So why do people even try to scale practically inaccessible peaks? But on the other hand, did the previously incredible achievements turn into a form of commercial tourism in our times? How should we prepare for a mountain expedition and how to enjoy it?
