When people think about climbing a 4000m peak, they picture the summit. The glacier, the altitude, the final steps.
In reality, the most important part of the climb happens much earlier.

Mountaineering skills develop judgement, adaptation and decision-making in complex environments. In the age of artificial intelligence, the mountains remain a powerful school for the future.
