And I thought they smelled bad on the outside
(In retrospect, maybe it wasn't the brightest idea trying to climb this mountain while a blizzard warning was in effect. The warnings were obvious and it's not like Mikasa ignored them at all; in fact, it's what had her decided to prepare that much more through thicker coats, climbing gear and the like.
But prepared as she may be, the weather was still garbage. Strong winds, lucky if the temperature hits 0* Fahrenheit...and yet she kept trudging forward. It's tradition that she make her way up to the peak, one that she and her parents shared for as long as she can remember. Now she makes the trip alone, even more determined to complete it because of that fact. It's reckless and even downright stupid, but she has to try, Mikasa tells herself. For their sake...
Of course, a year's a long time between these annual treks; that's plenty of time for things to change or certain individuals to make said mountains their home...)
