What does it take to keep your feet warm when it's -50º F (-46º C) outside and you are camping in a small tent in a blizzard? How about when you are climbing a mountain and need to warm your chilled feet? These challenges are familiar to anyone who has climbed, hiked, skied, or marched through winter conditions.

Most of us that grew up with an outdoor family have been hiking, motor cross, snowmobiling and camping. I have had the luxury of doing all of it. I used to love camping. Of course, as life goes on, we buy the luxuries of camping, even a bed off the ground. That's not camping but a hotel stay, but we still do it. Anyone who extremes hiking or camping has encountered a moment with an animal you cannot trust. I have encountered a cougar in the Appellation Mountains in North Carolina.

We don't want to be added to the statistics in a negative way, but if we don't prepare for these events, we just might. You see, in all these tragic cases, the civilians, the simple people, those who just want to continue living their lives, they are the ones who are always left confused and helpless. And it's not because they weren't informed - we all have access to the news now - so, the problem is not information dissemination.

Master of Thin Air opens with a fall that the author very nearly could not stop down an almost vertical rock ramp leading to a 3,000-foot drop. The qualities that saved him then on K2 - in addition to his mountaineering know-how and sheer good luck - drove his 16-year journey to summit all of the world's 8,000ers, the 14 peaks that exceed 8,000 meters (26,000-plus feet) and take climbers into the death zone. Incredibly, he accomplished that feat without the aid of bottled oxygen for every mountain but one.
