We all are acquainted with grief. It’s rare to leave this life without the pain and suffering that comes with our human experience.
Grief is different for everyone and the ways we move through our grief are as unique as the reasons why people sign up to climb a mountain over and over again for 36 hours to reach the vertical gain of Mt. Everest.
But the thing about choosing to climb a mountain with a partner like grief is that you can’t hide. The mountain will cause you to face whatever it is that lies just beneath your surface. If you let it, the mountain will crack you open and then gently put you back together; creating something new. The mountain isn’t afraid of our grief. It’s actually quite comfortable sharing space with wounded hearts.
Maybe that’s why those wounded hearts find 29029.
Meredith Coviello or "Mere" as we would come to know her on the mountain at Snowbasin was acquainted with climbing with her grief. She was 34 and suddenly a widow.
This is the grief that Mere brought with her to 29029, but this isn’t just a story about loss, Mere’s 29029 is about friendship, self-discovery and a new chapter in the same book. Some how there is beauty in grief but maybe only if you are willing to stop and look back to see how far you’ve come.
