Brief Description: Two friends stand at the foot of the glacier, looking up to Anarchy Ridge. They can't see the summit of the mountain, only its heaving shoulders; the snow whipping off the thin blade of the ridge making arabesques against an impossibly blue sky. As they stand in awe for a long time, gazing up at the stark challenge of their trek, the mountain awaits in silence. But one of the friends is destined never to return from the ridge alive. And the survivor, plunged into a life of deception, must run for his life from a vengeful father.
