Get swallowed by dark, toothy jaws. Tons upon tons of avalanche black snow, compacted by enormous pressures to form a disturbed tongue more than ten meters thick.
Ascend towards the blue, out of the shadows.
Emerge into absolute white, among ephemeral frames and sinuous curves of sparkling ice. Walk on ridge lines suspended between sky and sky, in the cold, bright, deep air.
Breathe the summit for just a moment.
And then descend, in great leaps, along with the soft snow.
