Cold Wars: Climbing The Fine Line Between Risk And Reality

Andy Kirkpatrick's account of climbing the hardest winter routes in the Alps — alone, underfunded, and frequently terrified. Kirkpatrick writes about fear better than any climber alive. Funny in a way that makes the danger feel more real, not less.
