:17:08
I 'm a little scared.
At first, I was really scared.
:17:11
Like, man,
I've never done this stuff before!
:17:13
It's just such a different mind-set out here.
You get a respect for how big everything is.
:17:30
Avalanches
are our biggest concerns.
:17:32
Crevasses. It's always scary.
You never know what to expect.
:17:36
You just have to know your outs,
know where your safe zones are.
:17:38
[ Farmer]
You have to be aware
that something can go wrong.
:17:41
And when it does,
it's usually catastrophic.
:17:43
[ Perata ]
You'll never be totally
comfortable up here. Never.
:17:46
And if you are, you shouldn't be here,
because all around you the mountains are alive.
:17:50
unless you're fully prepared to be
in a situation of life or death,
:17:55
you shouldn't be up here.
:18:08
[ Farmer] You can't get lulled
into a sense of anything being routine
up here, because it's not.
:18:12
When you're flying and you're
getting on top of these mountains,
:18:15
you better pay attention
to what the hell is going on.
:18:18
Because one mistake is going to cost you
your life or your friend's life.
:18:47
[Perata ]
Biggest thing that would bum me out
is if somebody got hurt or killed up here...
:18:51
in my backyard, in the place
that I've been riding for 15 years.
:18:54
I t's always been my thing.
I feel like the mother hen out here,
and, you know, I would feel responsible.
:18:59
It always crossed my mind that I'd end up
coming out here when I was a lot older.
