Weather windows, rope teams and turn-around times. Why safety decisions matter more than summits.
The most important decision a mountaineer makes is when to turn around. Summit fever has claimed many lives. Establishing strict turn-around times and adhering to them, regardless of how close the peak appears, is non-negotiable.
Safety relies on trusting your team, your equipment, and your instincts. We train to handle emergencies, but the best strategy is avoiding them through careful planning and respect for the mountain.
