This picture represents longs peak and is an actual picture of the mountain that Walt Mcandless took his wife Billie and kids from both Marriages to climb whit chris. Walt says that when they reached 13,000 a place named keyhole he decided to turn around and head back down the mountian,chris aprently wanted to keep going at the age of 12 but it was too dangerous and Walt said if chris was a little older he would have strated climbing up without him but since he was 12 all he could do was complain. I picked this this passage becuse it was a first sign of chris's ambition and indepence also the special drive he had to get things done and be in the wild. It can be found on page #109
