    Smoke drifts up into the night sky. It travels into the clouds and imitates their shape. Below the smoke is SAWYER, 25, tall and skinny with a pampered face and a sharp stubble beard. He smokes a cigarette. Sawyer sits atop a snowy drift set at the edge of Basecamp Everest.As the crisp air buckles beneath his hair, Sawyer looks towards the Mountain. It is still, yet it seems to look back at him. The Mountain challenges him and says bring it on!"Sawyer!" A Man shouts. Sawyer eyes JOHN, 46, grizzly and tempered, stands outside his tent. Sawyer flicks his cigarette onto the ground and puts it o...mJMone door
