There are a few mountain ranges that have qualified as international climbing grounds. This means that climbers can test themselves on the different mountain ranges that the world has to offer. However, different countries have already sent their best climbers there. And to prove their success, they plant their world flags on the peaks of the mountains that they have conquered.

However, just because someone did it doesn’t mean that the flags will always stay there. The brutal weather conditions are capable of tearing the flags apart and blowing them away. This means that new climbers have to continuously test themselves in those mountains and keep planting their flags if they want to mark history. After all, their country will remember them for their achievements.

There are climbers that have to hold on to a legacy that doesn't involve their country. Sometimes, climbers join groups and organizations that have exceptional reputations when it comes to climbing. This means that they have to live up to the achievements of their old members and try to keep that climbing skill alive. To achieve this, they have to keep testing themselves. And to prove their skill, they plant a custom flag with their organization's logo on the peaks that they conquer. This way, they prove their worth to the best climbers of their organization as well as prove to the rest of the world the value of their organization itself. This also makes sure that their tradition and the way they pass on their skills live on.
