This is an REI co-op studios production.

You've seen it yourself.

On a clear day, way, way up in the dome of the deep blue sky, you've seen something

sparkle.

Something glint, like polished silver in the sun.

You never give it a second thought, never spared another glance.

Why should you?

It's just a high-flying airplane of some kind, one of those unpainted ones with a gleaming

metal fuselage.

Isn't it?

What else could it be?

But all alone, in a tiny cockpit a mile above the earth, you gain a different perspective

on a lot of things.

Studies and roads and rivers and forests all shrink to insignificance.

Clouds are your company.

You see eye to eye with them, and that silver glint way off in the sky above.

Your perspective on that begins to change as well, because it doesn't move like a plane.

When as it comes closer, it doesn't look like one either.

What else could it be?

You don't know, and you decide that you don't want to find out.

But sometimes, all alone up there at high altitude, up where the air gets thin.

You find you don't have any choice.
