Download or read book Into Thin Air written by Jon Krakauer and published by Anchor. This book was released on 1998-11-12 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: #1 NATIONAL BESTSELLER • The epic account of the storm on the summit of Mt. Everest that claimed five lives and left countless more—including Krakauer's—in guilt-ridden disarray. "A harrowing tale of the perils of high-altitude climbing, a story of bad luck and worse judgment and of heartbreaking heroism." —PEOPLE A bank of clouds was assembling on the not-so-distant horizon, but journalist-mountaineer Jon Krakauer, standing on the summit of Mt. Everest, saw nothing that "suggested that a murderous storm was bearing down." He was wrong. By writing Into Thin Air, Krakauer may have hoped to exorcise some of his own demons and lay to rest some of the painful questions that still surround the event. He takes great pains to provide a balanced picture of the people and events he witnessed and gives due credit to the tireless and dedicated Sherpas. He also avoids blasting easy targets such as Sandy Pittman, the wealthy socialite who brought an espresso maker along on the expedition. Krakauer's highly personal inquiry into the catastrophe provides a great deal of insight into what went wrong. But for Krakauer himself, further interviews and investigations only lead him to the conclusion that his perceived failures were directly responsible for a fellow climber's death. Clearly, Krakauer remains haunted by the disaster, and although he relates a number of incidents in which he acted selflessly and even heroically, he seems unable to view those instances objectively. In the end, despite his evenhanded and even generous assessment of others' actions, he reserves a full measure of vitriol for himself. This updated trade paperback edition of Into Thin Air includes an extensive new postscript that sheds fascinating light on the acrimonious debate that flared between Krakauer and Everest guide Anatoli Boukreev in the wake of the tragedy. "I have no doubt that Boukreev's intentions were good on summit day," writes Krakauer in the postscript, dated August 1999. "What disturbs me, though, was Boukreev's refusal to acknowledge the possibility that he made even a single poor decision. Never did he indicate that perhaps it wasn't the best choice to climb without gas or go down ahead of his clients." As usual, Krakauer supports his points with dogged research and a good dose of humility. But rather than continue the heated discourse that has raged since Into Thin Air's denouncement of guide Boukreev, Krakauer's tone is conciliatory; he points most of his criticism at G. Weston De Walt, who coauthored The Climb, Boukreev's version of events. And in a touching conclusion, Krakauer recounts his last conversation with the late Boukreev, in which the two weathered climbers agreed to disagree about certain points. Krakauer had great hopes to patch things up with Boukreev, but the Russian later died in an avalanche on another Himalayan peak, Annapurna I. In 1999, Krakauer received an Academy Award in Literature from the American Academy of Arts and Letters--a prestigious prize intended "to honor writers of exceptional accomplishment." According to the Academy's citation, "Krakauer combines the tenacity and courage of the finest tradition of investigative journalism with the stylish subtlety and profound insight of the born writer. His account of an ascent of Mount Everest has led to a general reevaluation of climbing and of the commercialization of what was once a romantic, solitary sport; while his account of the life and death of Christopher McCandless, who died of starvation after challenging the Alaskan wilderness, delves even more deeply and disturbingly into the fascination of nature and the devastating effects of its lure on a young and curious mind."

Book excerpt: Based on the author's riveting story of his climb up Mount Everest, The Right Mountain is much more than an adventure story; it is about defining success for yourself-in business or in life. In the '80s, success meant money, power, and prestige; but today, success is personal and comes from what we believe as individuals - our core value. On Everest, teamwork, commitment, and self-awareness take stark new meaning in the face of adversity, and even death. Through this book, the mountain becomes a metaphor, teaching powerful lessons for business and personal life.· The Everest Express Team Tryouts· Building a Team, a Real Team· We're All in This Together· Commitment· I'm Training for Everest and Having a Little Trouble On This Hill! · Body and Mind· Stairs and Beer Versus The Fitness Institute· Everybody Is Different· You Don't Just Go to Everest· Bite-Sized Pieces· High-Tech Climbers and Barefoot Porters· Motivation Makes the Difference Every Time· You Can't Carry a Full Pack on the First Day· Life Is Not a Macho Sport· Seven Asses· Set Clear Goals and Communicate Them Clearly· The Children of Nepal· Involve Others· Leeches, Leeches Everywhere· Is It Going to Change the World?· Crossing a Landslide- Step...by...Step· Team Bonding· In the Path of an Avalanche· Sometimes You Have to Be Lucky· The Corn Woman· Keeping Perspective· How Far Is Too Far?· You Can't Go Full Tilt All the Time· Sometimes You Lead, Sometimes You Follow· Everyone Has a Role· Jimmy's Life at Stake· Sometimes You Have to Leave Them Alone· Our Only Chance to Save Jimmy· Sometimes You Have to Let Somebody Else Do It· Another Hundred Pounds of Corn· Everyone Has a Load to Carry· The Challenges In Front of Us· You Can Learn a Lot by Looking Back· Climbing In the Clouds· When You Don't Know What to Do, Do It Slowly· Sleeping On a 3,000-Foot Vertical· It Is Amazing What You Can Do· Cerebral Edema Strikes Two of Our Climbers· The Laws of Nature Cannot Be Violated· I Push Myself Too Far· Balance· Now We Are a Real Team· You Have to Live and Work Together to Really Know Each Other· Everest· Define Roles and Goals· The Thrill of Being There- At Base Camp· Don't Get Cocky- Don't Forget the Lessons Learned· Death at 17,000 Feet: Know Yourself· Know Yourself· Ric Gets Pulmonary Edema· Core Values- Vital Signposts of Life· A Second Death Crystallizes the Message· The Right Mountain· Final Preparations for the Climb to the Peak· Establishing Priorities· I Have To Turn Back· Decision Making· Jimmy Hits the Wall· Using Core Values· The Team Goes On· Security and Support Systems· The Final Assault· What Is the Definition of Success?
Download or read book One Man's Climb written by Adrian Hayes and published by Pen and Sword. This book was released on 2018-11-05 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A deeply moving story of the beauty and brutality of life, and death, on the world’s most unpredictable and perilous mountain. Sitting just lower than Everest at 8,611 meeres above sea level on the China–Pakistan border, the Savage Mountain claims the lives of even the most experienced climbers. Alongside severe altitude, the weather is notoriously volatile and the climb relentlessly steep. A staggering one in four attempts result in death on the mountain. In One Man’s Climb, Adrian Hayes details an intensely personal account of his attempts to climb K2 – first in 2013 and again in 2014. Absorbing and self-reflective, his journey is as much a story of climbing a mountain as it is a testament to the human spirit’s ability to endure.

Book Synopsis Sherpa Hospitality as a Cure for Frostbite by : Mark Horrell
Download or read book Sherpa Hospitality as a Cure for Frostbite written by Mark Horrell and published by Mountain Footsteps Press. This book was released on 2021-12-01 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The heroic story of how Sherpas stood up and took control of their destiny Ever since Europeans started exploring the world’s highest mountains and trying to reach their summits in the early 20th century, Sherpas have been an integral part of mountaineering expeditions to the Himalayas. In this anthology curated from his popular Footsteps on the Mountain blog, Mark Horrell explores the evolution of Sherpa mountaineers, from the porters of early expeditions to the superstar climbers of the present day. Writing with trademark warmth and humour, he starts by bringing to life the Sherpa characters of the early days, describing their customs and superstitions, and putting their contributions and achievements into context. In the deeply personal second section of the book, he covers some of the conflicts of the 21st century, when a series of high-profile controversies highlighted the tensions between Sherpas and western climbers on Everest. He was a witness to a devastating avalanche in the Khumbu Icefall that killed 16 Nepali mountain workers and led to a labour dispute, and he describes the events that followed from a commercial client’s perspective. In the final section of the book, he brings the story up to date and looks to the future, as Sherpas have moved out of the limelight of westerners, running successful mountaineering expedition companies and becoming celebrated climbers in their own right. "It's uncommon to come across stories that look beneath the surface to investigate deeper issues while remaining accessible and humorous. Sherpa Hospitality achieves this." Alex Roddie

Book Synopsis An Everest Survivor by : Hugo Rodriguez Barroso
Download or read book An Everest Survivor written by Hugo Rodriguez Barroso and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2015-09-21 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reaching the summit of Everest is a great achievement; getting down safely is even greater. Until 1996 one climber would die out of six, most of the time during their descent. Hugo Rodriguez Barroso proudly waved the Mexican flag on the top of the world on May the 23rd of 1997, at 2:12 p. m. Hugo became at that moment the first athlete in the world to accomplish the huge challenges of long distance swimming and mountain climbing: the solo swim of the English Channel and the summit of Mount Everest, a conqueror of both sea and land. After reaching the summit Hugo faced an unpredicted situation of extreme survival under difficult circumstances: with no oxygen, no tent, no sleeping bag at 28,000 feet caught in a storm that would take the temperature down to 49 F below zero. From Camp Four the news spread across the mountain all the way down to Base Camp and to the world; Hugo had perished, no one had ever survived a single night at such altitude under such conditions. Back in 1996 several climbers had been trapped in South Col to die in an event still considered the greatest tragedy in History of Everest. But the unthinkable happened, something never ever seen before. In a journey into himself that at times verged on delirium, Hugo not only survived one whole night above 28,000 feet in Everest but, near dawn, he climbed down to Camp Four, which for any other individual would have been impossible to perform after being at extreme altitude for more than 34 hours. Was it his willpower, his determination or his impeccable training? Or was it an exercise of certainty? Perhaps none of the above would have occurred if at the time he hadn't managed to become one with the mountain. While Hugo, a brave Mexican and human being, goes on the tale of his climb to the highest mountain in the world, we will be led along an experience that for sure will invite us to reflect, and certainly, to make us become one with Everest."

Book excerpt: Everest, the major motion picture from Universal Pictures, is set for wide release on September 18, 2015. Read The Climb, Anatoli Boukreev (portrayed by Ingvar Sigurðsson in the film) and G. Weston DeWalt’s compelling account of those fateful events on Everest. In May 1996 three expeditions attempted to climb Mount Everest on the Southeast Ridge route pioneered by Sir Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay in 1953. Crowded conditions slowed their progress. Late in the day twenty-three men and women-including expedition leaders Scott Fischer and Rob Hall-were caught in a ferocious blizzard. Disoriented and out of oxygen, climbers struggled to find their way down the mountain as darkness approached. Alone and climbing blind, Anatoli Boukreev brought climbers back from the edge of certain death. This new edition includes a transcript of the Mountain Madness expedition debriefing recorded five days after the tragedy, as well as G. Weston DeWalt's response to Into Thin Air author Jon Krakauer.
