Description
Veteran climber Paul Huebner takes you on spectacular climbing adventures in the Alps of Europe, the mountains of Alaska, the Colorado Rockies, Canada and the North Cascades, the volcanoes of Mexico and the Andes of Bolivia and Ecuador. He describes in vivid detail the many risks, mishaps and close calls he's experienced on his adventures, including witnessing the heart-pounding rescue of a terrified woman high on the Matterhorn after her partner had fallen to his death; the miraculous escape from a bombardment of falling rocks and lightning while leading a team of amateurs in the Canadian Rockies; and succumbing to altitude sickness and being greeted by a shotgun-toting night watchman in the Andes. Huebner enlightens you on the ever-present question of why climbers take the inconceivable risks and expose themselves to the incredible hazards, and he explains why he finally decided to hang up the rope.
