Story
14 luglio 1961, A Courmayeur scatta l'allarme. Sul Pilone Centrale del Frêney, la parete rocciosa più alta del Monte Bianco, sette scalatori guidati da Walter Bonatti e Pierre Mazeaud si trovano intrappolati nella bufera. Neve, temporali a catena, temperature polari, una perturbazione che sembra non finire più. Per giorni le squadre di soccorso tentano di raggiungere i dispersi mentre la radio e la televisione rivelano un dramma in crescendo che si consuma dal vivo, ma che rimane lontano, invisibile dentro le nubi.

Story
Fanny Bullock Workman was a complicated and restless woman who defied the rigid Victorian morals she found as restrictive as a corset. With her frizzy, brown hair tucked under a topee, Workman was a force on the mountain and off. Instrumental in breaking the British stranglehold on Himalayan mountain climbing, this American woman climbed more peaks than any of her peers, became the first woman to map the far reaches of the Himalayas, the first woman to lecture at the Sorbonne, and the second to address the Royal Geographic Society of London.

Story
Che cos'è l'andare in montagna senza la conquista della cima? Un atto di non violenza, un desiderio di comprensione, un girare intorno al senso del proprio camminare. Questo audiolibro è un taccuino di viaggio, ma anche il racconto illustrato, caldo, dettagliato, di come vacillano le certezze col mal di montagna, di come si dialoga con un cane tibetano, di come il paesaggio diventa trama del corpo e dello spirito. Perché l'Himalaya non è una terra in cui addentrarsi alla leggera: è una montagna viva, abitata, usata, a volte subita, molto lontana dalla nostra.

Story
On the night of April 9, 1997, Warren Macdonald, a fit and experienced bushwalker, set out to climb Mount Bowen on Hinchinbrook Island, an unspoiled tropical paradise off the Australian coast. These would be his last steps as a fully intact human being: a freak rock fall pinned him for two days alone under a one-ton boulder, resulting in a double leg amputation. A Test of Will is a story both tragic and inspiring, conveying the horror of what happened and the extraordinary spirit that helped Macdonald survive a seemingly impossible ordeal.

Story
When Brendan Leonard moved to the West at age 23, he was a mess. He had a tenuous grip on sobriety, only six months after his last drink had landed him in yet another jail cell. It was the final mistake in a long list that included multiple arrests, wrecked cars, broken bones, fistfights, and ruined relationships. In Montana, he took his first steps into the Rocky Mountains, unwittingly beginning a decade-long obsession with climbing and a journey that would take him all over the West and Europe.

Story
Hans Florine is a big-wall climbing legend in his own time. He holds the speed record on the Nose route of El Capitan, a 3,000-foot granite cliff in Yosemite Valley that's considered the Everest of the rock-climbing world. But Florine's story is not one of super-human athletic prowess; it's one of persistence and dogged determination. In 30 years of climbing, he's ascended the Nose a mind-blowing, death-defying 100 times, more than anyone else ever has, and most likely ever will. In On the Nose, Florine describes the most dangerous, pivotal, and inspirational of those climbs.

Story
Before Georgetown physics professor Francis Slakey decided to climb the highest mountain on every continent and surf every ocean, he had shut himself off from other people. His lectures were mechanical; his relationships were little more than ways to fill the evenings. But as his journey veered dangerously off course, everything began to change. A gripping adventure of the body and mind, To the Last Breath depicts the quest that leads Slakey around the globe, almost takes his life, and opens his heart.

"Epic" is a mountaineering term that evokes a sense of treacherous disaster. The climb that went wrong: fighting blinding snowstorms and horrific avalanches; days spent tentbound running low on food, water, and oxygen; surviving broken bones and shattered spirits. This program offers a collection of the most memorable accounts of legend-making expeditions to the world's most famous peaks, often in the worst possible conditions.

Von seiner ersten Besteigung eines 3000ers als Fünfjähriger bis zur Durchquerung der Wüste Gobi mit 60 Jahren. Seine Fülle an Erfahrungen, sein Ausreizen menschlicher Leidens- und Leistungsfähigkeit, seine ehrliche Anteilnahme am Leben der Bergvölker und schließlich auch sein soziales und politisches Engagement zeichnen diesen sehr persönlichen Bericht aus.
