The true joy of the wildernes...

Voted 10/10

This is one reason that makes a climb worth it...a secret that only a climber would know. The very simple fact that this remains the greatest impact upon the climber after the hike is all done. Thanks for sharing the photo.

The name of this flower is Sky Pilot. They are definitely a delight to see after a long climb.

"Nothing in this world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful people with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. The slogan "press on" has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race." --Calvin Coolidge
