The Smoky Mountain Honeycomb

By Fernando Davalos

Short story to be told to young children about a living mountain that had very strict requirements to allow any climber to reach its summit.

The author explains why the mountain did not allow everybody to ascend to its top and tells how the mountain used through its power within nature that had been conferred on it by God, some natural elements that prevented certain people from climbing, and even groups of mountaineers because they did not fulfill their spiritual obligations.

The author even offers some explanations that may seem improbable to explain about the action of some natural elements in his story.
