Adventure Journal posted this excellent video earlier today and I thought it was definitely worth sharing here as well. The short film was made by Tyler Stableford and stars climber Steve House, who also narrates. In that narration, the climber talks about his pursuits in the mountains and how they make him feel. What its like to return home following an expedition and what continues to drive him. I think you’ll find what he has to say a bit surprising, perhaps even haunting, and after watching the video I couldn’t help but wonder how those who have just climbed Everest feel as they head home. Will it be something like this?

Yeah – you will know just for a few seconds – but it will all be for nothing. Just selfishness.
