Beyond the Peak

Beyond the Peak

"Beyond the Peak" tells the poignant story of David Rayman-Rajkovic and his Orthodox Christian mountain climbing club and their expeditions in the mountains. In 2010, after the loss of his brother Zachary, David climbs Colorado's Blanca Peak to fulfill Zachary's final wish, to say a prayer on top of a mountain. Documenting the ascent, David and his brother-in-law Ranko encounter challenges but ultimately reach the summit for Zachary's memorial. Moved by their journey and praying on top of a mountain they knew this experience was worth sharing with others. This led to the inception of the Saint Nicholas Mountain Climbing club where mountaineering and prayer intertwine.
