Why?

After ten days of climbing in Joshua Tree National Park, I found my self back in Salt Lake City. While in Joshua Tree, a question was raised, why climb? For any discipline of mountaineering, I don't think one can really answer the question. Yet, it is an interesting question to pose.


Why would or do you climb?

Perhaps for my self, a quote by Fyodor Dostoyevsky summerizes it best

"Only through suffering can we find ourselves."
