And so it is in ice climbing, with each holding the life of the other literally in his or her hands. Tim and I rested a bit to allow the adrenaline rush to subside. Watching that climber fall had made me nervous, and I tried to calm myself with a few minutes of meditation. indd 27 Lower Weeping Wall 27 7/24/15 12:28 PM another—as protection against falling. Tim had trained as an ice climb leader with professionals, but this was his first solo ice lead. All lead ice climbers need superior skills.
All that night, as Tim and I sat on the ledge making choices, frostnip bit into our fingertips, and the tips of our toes and noses, and on our cheeks and earlobes. indd 44 Heaven Is Beautiful 7/24/15 12:28 PM there and I worked the rope, my shivering continued to increase in violence. My body was spastic, bouncing up and down, and difficult to control, making it increasingly difficult to make my hands and arms do what I wanted them to do in order to untangle the rope. Tim, who was not in as bad of shape due to the cold as I was, kept telling me in a calm and caring voice that my shivers were a good sign, because they meant my body was trying to keep itself warm.
It was just a day climb. That is what the guidebooks say. indd 34 Heaven Is Beautiful 7/24/15 12:28 PM day. We planned for the same, and carried only what we needed for a day climb and nothing more. We did not carry a stove or gas, or food for dinner, or sleeping bags, or any extra or extraneous gear—not even extra water or food. Nobody did. We traveled light on purpose, just like everybody else. You might guess that I’ve thought a lot about the mistakes we made that day . . and I have. I attribute it to the exuberance and optimism of my youth and my false belief in my own invulnerability and immortality.
