"Well thats right," I said. "The whole purpose of mountain climbing to me isn't just to show off you can get to the top, its getting out to this wild counrty."
"Well I'm gonna go," said Japhy
"Well if you're gonna go I'm going with you." pg 81
Ray compleatly controdicts himself here. He says he doesn't need to get to the top. But as soon as Japhy says he is going he says he will too. I think that he sort of feels like he does't nessisarily compeat with Japhy but he deffinatly wants to be able to keep up with him and not seem weaker.
"Oh what a life this is, why do we have to be born in the first place, and only so we can have out poor gentle flsh laid out to such impossible horrors as huge mountains and rock and empty space," pg 83
This puts things into perspective. These mountains are here and were here first. The peole climbing them dont matter, but to the people its huge and can be life threatening
