"K2 is just a mountain. And our group reason that climb hard, climb safe but always come home. There are lots of morons out there thinking differently saying that you have to accept a certain loss or sacrifice. If you do bend and compromise on your set values what will it be next time you go for a climb, you tend to compromise just a little bit more, and then a little bit more, a little bit harder...
