À propos de cet audio
What does it take to be one of the world's best high-altitude mountain climbers? A lot of fundraising; traveling in some of the world's most dangerous countries; enduring cold bivouacs, searing lungs, and a cloudy mind when you can least afford one. It means learning the hard lessons the mountains teach.
Steve House built his reputation on ascents throughout the Alps, Canada, Alaska, the Karakoram, and the Himalaya that have expanded possibilities of style, speed, and difficulty. In 2005 Steve and alpinist Vince Anderson pioneered a direct new route on the Rupal Face of 26,600-foot Nanga Parbat, which had never before been climbed in alpine style. It was the third ascent of the face and the achievement earned Steve and Vince the first Piolet d'or (Golden Ice Axe) awarded to North Americans.
Steve is an accomplished and spellbinding storyteller in the tradition of Maurice Herzog and Lionel Terray. Beyond the Mountain is a gripping listen, destined to be a mountain classic. And it addresses many issues common to nonclimbing life - mentorship, trust, failure success, goal setting, heroes, partnership - as well as the mountaineer's heightened experience of risk and the deaths of friends. Beyond the Mountain is a window into the process of a man working to be the best he can be.

Inspiring
I was involved with the story and challenges in Steve’s life as an alpinist of greatest achievements. However, it’s a bit tragic to see how full dedication to alpinism was, and how narrow is author’s attitude towards other people and cultures. However, it's not a book about just a person but who he became and what he achieved for the world of alpinism.

Excellent listen
Especially touching to hear Steve House narrate the highs, lows, and the midpoints of his life and the climbs that define it. I had read the book already and it was great to recall the details and be told them in a fresher light.
