These teams varied from veterans hikes on the mountain to amichurs hikers, each team consisted of around 10 to 20 people per team that are put together from around the world to climb one mountain.

that both narratives follow the attempts of climbers to scale an imposing mountain, “The Devils Thumb” and Touch the Top of the World handle the subject matter in different ways.
