just watched the film K2 tonight, great stuff, really went through all the dilemas climbers must face on these extreme peaks when people get ill, some bits where very similar to touching the void, with a hollywood twist of course  ;)

What would the world be, once bereft
Of wet and of wildness? Let them be left,
O let them be left, wildness and wet;
Long live the weeds and the wilderness yet.
