"Listen & Live's Adrenaline Series is one of the best in the genre". - The Denver Post
Year after year, climbers return to the world's most difficult mountains. At these places, even the most cautious climber is vulnerable to mistakes, bad weather and bad luck, which often leads to death. This collection offers harrowing accounts of extreme mountaineering and its potentially fatal consequences.

The quality of writing is of the highest standard and the choice of readers used is first-class. If you are a climber or enjoy reading about climbing expeditions you are sure to enjoy this well produced audio anthology.
