Story4
The Last Great Mountain tells the story of the first ascent of Kangchenjunga the third highest but reputedly the hardest mountain in the world. It was an astonishing achievement for a British team led by Everest veteran Charles Evans. Drawing on interviews, diaries and unpublished accounts, Mick Conefrey begins his story in 1905 with the disastrous first attempt on the mountain by a team led by Aleister Crowley, explores the three dramatic German expeditions of the the late 1920s and brings it all to a climax 50 years later with the first ascent by Joe Brown and George Band.

Story96
One of the inspirations for the major motion picture Everest, starring Jake Gyllenhaal and Keira Knightley. This is the true story of a 24-hour period on Everest when members of three separate expeditions were caught in a storm and faced a battle against hurricane-force winds, exposure, and the effects of altitude, which ended the worst single-season death toll in the peak's history.

At 28,251 feet, K2 might be almost 800 feet shorter than Everest, but it’s a far harder climb. It will kill you on the way up and the way down. Mick Conefrey guides us through the early story of the legendary mountain and the extraordinary attempts that led up to its first ascent in 1954 - these are tales of riveting drama and unimaginable tragedy.

Story1
In early 2003, a young Wall Street investment banker named Bo Parfet set out to accomplish something very few had done before - climbing the highest mountain on every continent. He was not a professional climber, but what began as a casual interest would soon become a lifelong passion and in just over four years, Bo would overcome the odds and conquer all of the mountains - Kilimanjaro, Aconcagua, Denali, Vinson Massif, Elbrus, Carstenz Pyramid, Kosciusko, and Everest - with courage, unbridled passion, and determination.

Reinhold Messner, oltre che grande scalatore, è anche un attento e impegnato comunicatore del mondo dell'alpinismo, consapevole che la grande sfida, oggi, più che nelle altezze e nei record, sta nel rispetto della montagna e nello spirito con cui la si vive. Nella grande impresa, l'anima di un luogo e il confronto sincero, autentico con se stessi contano di più della bandierina su una vetta. Nella rubrica che tiene periodicamente su "La Gazzetta dello Sport", Messner ha raccontato i protagonisti e gioito dei traguardi dell'alpinismo contemporaneo.

Tom Ballard fu "figlio della montagna" nel senso più profondo del termine. Non è un'ardita metafora, ma la sintesi di un rapporto che è stato prima genetico e poi animato da una passione esclusiva, irrefrenabile, assoluta. Era figlio di Alison Hargreaves, "la più forte delle donne alpiniste", secondo Reinhold Messner. E anche una delle più controverse: aveva scalato l'Eiger tre mesi prima di dare alla luce Tom, sollevando un vespaio di polemiche.

"È una lotta veramente disperata la nostra, fra la realtà e noi stessi, ma alla fine siamo noi a vincere e alle 12:30 esatte le nostre bandierine sventolano o meglio sbattono al vento burrascoso della vetta. Siamo sulla punta massima del GIV a 7980 metri di quota". Così Walter Bonatti rievoca la conquista del Gasherbrum IV da parte della spedizione italiana il 6 agosto del 1958. Un’epica impresa tra le nevi perenni del Karakorum, diversa da tutte le altre, compiuta su una via che nessuno mai più ripeterà nei successivi sessant’anni.

Oggi le montagne d'Italia e del mondo - le Dolomiti e il Monte Bianco, l'Everest e il K2, il Kilimanjaro e il Gran Sasso - sono soprattutto spazi di divertimento e avventura. Ma i sentieri, le pareti di roccia e di ghiaccio, le piste da sci e le vette sono solo una parte del quadro. Per millenni, in ogni angolo della terra, le montagne sono state territori di duro lavoro quotidiano, fonte di paura e luoghi eletti a culto, scenario di sfide che hanno messo alla prova le umane possibilità, oltre che teatro di guerra.

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.

Having vowed never to become That Guy who dies in the mountains, he returns to the narrow ledge between safety and oblivion. Questions swirl in his head as the climb draws near.

Il rapporto dell'uomo con la montagna è antichissimo. La montagna, spesso ostile e pericolosa, l'ha protetto dai pericoli, gli ha permesso di cogliere il mondo dall'alto, nel suo insieme, di guardare il cielo e sentirsi più vicino all'infinito. È il luogo in cui l'uomo ritrova sé stesso, spingendosi oltre i propri limiti, nella solitudine delle cime, pur in mezzo ai compagni di cordata. Questo audiolibro è un mosaico di storie di eroi che si sono distinti sulle vette più alte del mondo, realizzando imprese eroiche, salvataggi rischiosi.

Chris Bonington è uno dei più grandi alpinisti al mondo. A più di ottant’anni, non smette ancora di affrontare le cime e se stesso: la montagna è per lui sfida, ricerca del limite, senso della vita. In questa autobiografia racconta la sua storia straordinaria: la famiglia, da cui eredita il temperamento avventuroso; la madre, una donna forte, coraggiosa, anticonformista, che lo alleva con tenerezza e determinazione durante gli anni della guerra; l’attrazione per le vette, un magnete irresistibile che lo allontana prima dalla carriera militare e poi da quella nel marketing, reclamandolo a sé come unico scopo dell’esistenza.

Nims Purja è stato un bambino assetato di avventura e di giustizia, partito da un villaggio nepalese per diventare un soldato gurkha e trasformatosi poi, tra combattimenti e scalate, in un alpinista inarrestabile con una sfida da vincere. E con qualcosa da dimostrare: che possiamo spingere più avanti, e più in alto, i confini dell'impensabile. Sotto lo sguardo degli dèi della montagna si svolge così la sua missione impossibile: salire in sette mesi tutti gli Ottomila della Terra («settimana più, settimana meno»: e saranno meno).

"Non è una punta, ma una massa prodigiosa. Il lungo braccio della Cresta Nord-ovest, con i suoi speroni secondari, sembra la cattedrale di Winchester dopo una nevicata." George Leigh Mallory, 1921. È l'Everest: sui suoi pendii da un secolo si cimentano i migliori alpinisti del mondo, da Eric Shipton a Reinhold Messner, da Edmund Hillary a Krzysztof Wielicki, Anatolij Boukreev, Doug Scott, Simone Moro e Alex Txikon. Ma anche avventurieri, topografi, sognatori, scienziati e figure eccezionali come quelle degli sherpa.

Quando nel 1961 pubblica Le mie montagne, il suo primo libro, Walter Bonatti ha da rac- contare oltre un decennio di imprese impossibili, trionfi e sofferenze: dalla scalata sullo sperone Walker (a 19 anni) all’odissea sul Pilone Centrale, passando per il Grand Capucin, il Dru e la fatidica notte all’addiaccio sul K2. Se questo libro segnerà una svolta nella sua vita, sarà anche per il riaccendersi delle braci che covavano proprio sotto la memoria di quell’episodio.

Le montagne esistono perché noi possiamo scalarle, possiamo camminarci, possiamo sciarci? Ha senso, in un ecosistema così fragile, perseguire un modello di sviluppo fondato sulla crescita, sull’aumento anno dopo anno di turisti e di impianti? Perché altre culture, dall’Himalaya alle Ande, hanno immaginato l’esistenza di montagne sacre, luoghi da cui l’uomo dovesse restare lontano? Cosa ci insegna questa idea di limite? Se sulle carte geografiche non esistono più spazi bianchi e inesplorati, in montagna non esistono più vette inviolate, in particolare sulle Alpi.
