Die Trying: One Man's Quest to Conquer the Seven Summits , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 517min
In early 2003, a young Wall Street investment banker named Bo Parfet set out to accomplish something very few had done before - climbing the highest mountain on every continent. He was not a professional climber, but what began as a casual interest would soon become a lifelong passion and in just over four years, Bo would overcome the odds and conquer all of the mountains - Kilimanjaro, Aconcagua, Denali, Vinson Massif, Elbrus, Carstenz Pyramid, Kosciusko, and Everest - with courage, unbridled passion, and determination. Combining the gripping narrative of Into Thin Air with the adrenaline-fueled drama of Vertical Limit, Die Trying is the incredible story of one man's battle against his own limitations. From dodging avalanches to crossing a ladder over a seemingly bottomless crevasse, to making his way through the Khumbu Icefall and burying a dead teammate at 27,000 feet, we experience all of the author's exhilarating, often terrifying climbs first-hand. We travel with him during his near-death experiences when falling into a crevasse in New Zealand and nearly-drowning in crocodile-infested rapids during a canoe race in Belize. And we share the terror of his confrontations with corrupt army officials, cannibalistic tribesmen, and local militia groups. Harrowing and uplifting, Die Trying is a riveting memoir that will inspire all of us to defy the odds and fulfill our dreams. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Eric Michael Summerer.

One Woman in the Himalayas: Not Every Idea Is a Good Idea, but You Don't Know Until You Try , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 183min
Saying yes to a high-altitude hike in the Himalayas was impossible to resist for adventure traveler Tracy Pawelski. But when red flags start to appear - unpredictable weather, trekkers stranded on the high pass, and a fragile infrastructure following 2015’s devastating earthquake - Tracy begins to second-guess her decision. One Woman in the Himalayas recounts Tracy’s journey of unexpected twists and turns on Nepal’s famed Annapurna Circuit, one of the great treks in the world. She struggles with decisions that test her ability to adapt and think fast on her feet. This story is about finding the courage to continue even when things don’t go as you planned. Walk with Tracy on an ancient trading route past waterfalls and rice terraces; peek inside the oldest monastery in the Himalayas; and share the path with yak herders and Sherpas. When Tracy finally hangs a string of Tibetan prayer flags over the Gangapurna Icefall to mark her turnaround point, she remembers the Buddhist monk who blessed them. Maybe Tracy wasn’t quite ready for this test, but “If you wait until you think you’re ready,” she says, “you may never act.” In her first book, One Woman’s Camino, Tracy captured our hearts with the story about a mother-daughter adventure on an ancient pilgrim route across Spain. Now, join Tracy as she walks in the shadow of the world’s highest mountains and brings us along on a raw and wild ride of changed plans, pivots, and decisions made in thin air. You don’t want to miss a single word. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Tracy Pawelski. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/233184/bk_acx0_233184_sample.mp3.

No Barriers: A Blind Man's Journey to Kayak the Grand Canyon , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 1174min
Erik Weihenmayer is the first and only blind person to summit Mount Everest, the highest point on Earth. Descending carefully, he and his team picked their way across deep crevasses and through the deadly Khumbu Icefall; when the mountain was finally behind him, Erik knew he was going to live. His expedition leader slapped him on the back and said something that would affect the course of Erik's life: "Don't make Everest the greatest thing you ever do." No Barriers is Erik's response to that challenge. It is the moving story of his journey since descending Mount Everest - from leading expeditions around the world with blind Tibetan teenagers to helping injured soldiers climb their way home from war, from adopting a son from Nepal to facing the most terrifying reach of his life: to solo kayak the thunderous whitewater of the Grand Canyon. Along the course of Erik's journey, he meets other trailblazers - adventurers, scientists, artists, and activists - who, despite trauma, hardship, and loss, have broken through barriers of their own. These pioneers show Erik surprising ways forward that surpass logic and defy traditional thinking. Like the rapids of the Grand Canyon, created by inexorable forces far beneath the surface, No Barriers is a dive into the heart and mind at the core of the turbulent human experience. It is an exploration of the light that burns in all of us, the obstacles that threaten to extinguish that light, and the treacherous ascent toward growth and rebirth. This program includes a bonus interview with the author and his climbing partner as well as a foreword read by Bob Woodruff. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Holter Graham, Bob Woodruff.

Everest: It's Not About the Summit , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 581min
In 2014, Mount Everest was closed to all climbers after a devastating avalanche claimed the lives of 16 Nepali mountain workers ferrying loads up through the Khumbu Icefall on the mountain's southern approach through Nepal. Almost a year to the day later, in late April 2015, the mountain was once more rocked to its core after a large earthquake struck Nepal, sending shock waves rippling across the Himalayas. These ripples left a trail of devastation in their path causing, yet again, another avalanche to wreak havoc on the mountain. This time, 22 people lost their lives, in what would become the deadliest day in the mountain's history.Back in 2013, Ellis J. Stewart, a then 40-year-old from the UK, had but one goal: to climb the mountain. Something he had targeted achieving for over 20 years. This book is the author’s story of those endeavors during the two most devastating years in the history of attempts on Everest.Not every climber who goes to Everest succeeds; not every climber returns to tell the tale, but to return unscathed after such a large loss of life is a story to be told. This is that story.Everest: It’s Not About the Summit is a very honest account of a lifelong dream shattered in tragic circumstances. From the streets of northern England through to the valleys and high mountains of Nepal, Stewart shared his story with thousands of followers on social media, winning over the hearts and minds of many. A groundswell of support sent Ellis to achieve his dream, not once but twice. Nobody could have anticipated the events that would follow. Events that would define Stewart in ways he couldn't possibly have imagined.This book invites you into an intoxicating world - one where the margin between success and failure is brutally slim. This is a moving book with tragedy and commitment to a cause as a very central theme. It is a real story about real people. Whether it’s your usual genre of book or not doesn't matter, as it's b ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: John Weston.
