Flying because
Difficult to describe this passion. I love to mountaineer, to climb mountains. I think the most elegant way to do it is by hike and fly, obviously followed by ski touring. To waste the energy of the ascent by walking down is something I don't like every since I can fly.
That only covers hike and fly with my mountain wing.
But to hike up a mountain and then cover 100 km+ with a piece of cloth over your head is magic. All the mind work and the strategic decisions we make is what makes it so special to me.
