Just finished. Holy crap…what a book! Apparently I like books about climbing. Any suggestions, fiction or non fiction, that will scratch my mountain itch? by willysargento
Old-Scratch666 on December 21, 2024 11:12 pm You should read Anatoli Boukreev’s book the Climb. It’s about the same event, but from a different perspective of some one else who was there.
Old-Scratch666 on December 21, 2024 11:13 pm I also recommend two other books Krakauer wrote, under the banner of heaven, and boots on the ground!
