Beautiful Quote by Ueli Steck

“Of course I climbed Everest without oxygen, but it's not the end of the story for me. The summit itself is not what counts. It's how'd you get there, what'd you climb, and there are really great opportunities to climb on this mountain. It's a beautiful place.” quote by Ueli Steck — Download Open image
