Mountaintop vistas help us expand our awareness beyond the tight, leaden, claustraphobic feeling we so often have when immersed in the concerns of daily life. Far-reaching views mirror for us the spacious freedom of a mind and heart engaged in meditation, providing a sense of optimism, a feeling of hope for the future. They are the essence of the American West.
