A rock-climber can't afford such peril as that to which the unskilled skier—speeding down, happily out of control without knowing it—subjects himself if he tries the Nosedive. On rock, a subjective danger is more serious, for if there should be snow for a climber to fall on when he is out of control, it is often too far below. His safety, then, lies in controlled climbing, an ability derived in turn from progressive study of what his body is able to do. Once he has learned his limitations, his further safety lies in knowing how to correct the mistake of going beyond the limit of his ability.
Control can be learned on easy ridges and rocks. With no risk, a skier can assay his coordination and develop his ability by climbing at the base of a cliff, on progressively higher angles and tinier holds, where he is never so far above a landing strip that he cannot safely jump if something happens to his controls. Competition afforded by a follow-the-leader process will speed his early progress and that of his friends. Without increasing his exposure to difficulty he can learn the function of the rope, carabiner, piton, and footgear. Finally, and still without exposing himself to great height until he is ready, he can learn how his control and his climbing aids are combined to provide corrective measures and to build a team.
While learning to control himself and his rope the student will raise the limits of his agility, strength, and endurance. Agility will enable him to use more efficiently the strength he builds. The actual exercise will ease his acclimatization to high altitude. When his muscles and vital organs are in tone, and he has finally become smart enough to hoard his fund of energy, spending it only when necessary, he will have endurance. It is endurance that gets mountaineers up big mountains, endurance so distinct from the flash energy used in downhill racing or football that it has been said that the ideal age for those who would attempt to climb Mount Everest is 25 to 35. Younger men spurt too much.
