: COS Feature & Caption » @c_healy! 'The Big Guy' | Little Cottonwood Canyon Don't look down. Stay on the rock. Breathe. Stay calm. Keep moving. These are things I would tell myself to help calm my nerves as I went through the process of climbing this 25' tall granite arête this morning. Despite being terrified, I was able to find solace in these words and in the very movement of the climbing itself. It was a neat process to arrive at the scene scared and then to overcome that and replace that fear with pure content and peace of mind. Thanks @threepeakfilms and @jefftheclimber for the support!

"Yes, we may find adventure in every aspect of our lives. For me, exploring the wild is significantly different than other aspects in my life. I mean, you know that feeling you get when you have to literally get out and explore the depths of the wild? It's like a strong, almost overbearing, feeling that consumes our emotions - why? As humans, we are naturally curious, it's the way of mankind and always will be. We all must live spontaneously from time to time because this will cleanse your mind as well as your adventurous spirit... we must live for the wild as the wild never stops living for us." -COS Founder, @JordanKatter . . .

COS Feature & Caption »@dcaviede5! . . . "This shot takes me back to December 2008—my first climbing trip. Born at 2,800 meters; life carried me and my family down to sea level in 1998. Ten years later, I began to entertain the idea of stepping into the unknown—a world of clouds, ice, granite, slopes, crevasses, ridges, and seracs. I had a vague idea—perhaps even no idea of the physical and mental challenges of mountaineering, yet I vowed to prepare as best as my nature allowed me to and take the leap. I thought I would find success at the summit, if I even got there. Well, I got there—and found it. Yet not in the way the world describes it. I found out how small we really are in this world. I realized how my priorities in life go beyond a social status, a bank account, and a diploma. I learned to appreciate what I have—whether it's a dollar, an old shirt, or a breath. Above all, I learned to acknowledge the Creator for His creativity and wonders. To me, that's success. #YAHWEH" . . .
