Originally, poverty forced the Sherpas to cross the snowline on the holy and highest mountains in the world-into the realm of the Gods. There, according to their Buddhist beliefs they might lose both this life, and the next. Today, proudness is also a driving and new conflicting force. The old asymmetric colonial relation between sahibs and coolies has largely evened out. Sherpas organize their own expeditions and record races. But still we, the wealthy foreigners, can pay a high price to put both Sherpas and us into mortal danger. What are we fighting for? Or fleeing from?
