It is hard for me to describe the wonder and beauty of the mountains. These things should be left to the expert word-smiths to do it justice. There is a wonderful and complete silence that surrounds you when you are up in the snow line, someone once described it as a, ‘ Loud silence’ It is a silence that has a deep presence. Maybe it is more than silence? More like a feeling of peace.
