When I first saw the thread title, I thought it meant "blown away" as in nearly killed. I was blown away in Vietnam by a satchel charge, (IED), in modern terms. Damn near killed me, but that's another story, unrelated to climbing.

Here's to Jello and his vision,
and his first solo ascent of the South Face of Ama Dablam in Nepal.
1979 Lowe Route on the South Face (VI AI4 M5 1200m), FA Solo by Jeff Lowe, 30 April 1979.[8] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ama_Dablam

Bump for Jeff Lowe and Pure Alpine Spirit!
"Modesty is the greatest virtue of a mountaineer...Its foundation is always a pure love of the mountains, the sinking of self in their life, their being, their spirit. It is only to the devout lover that the mountains open their riches and their inmost heart. Let him give his whole self in devotion, nothing doubting, and they will return love for love; and whom they love, they draw him up to themselves and make him great and rich. Happy is their favorite." Julius Kugy, Alpine Pilgrimage, 1934

I've noticed, when I'm in the mountains, that I instinctively start whispering out of humbleness..

Righto. Not blown away, but certainly humbled.
But like Donovan sang, "first there is a mountain then there is no mountain, then there is".
