Kane, thank you for writing this and sorry it took me a while to discover it. I knew very little of what you've written about here and find it fascinating. Fascinating both from the actual experience of skinny gripping (love that play on words) and also from what I extrapolate to mean the desire to be truly and authentically in touch with oneself after overcoming challenges...as large as mountains.
I don't have mountains locally where I live but a while ago did wear several pieces of jewelry with mountains to remind myself that the difficulty in life did have meaning and there would be a peak with also easier times ahead. I can imagine the freedom you feel in mountaineering in the nude. I enjoy cold water swimming and just the sheer being in my body in ways that expand life.
I would love to read more about your experience with this.
Thank you MM! Glad you enjoyed it and I'm happy that, though you do not have geographical access to these giants, you still find ways to include them and their meaning in your life.
