BOOK DESCRIPTION

This book is not a how-to book about free soloing. Such a book does not exist, and can and should never exist. For most alpinists, climbing without any kind of protection is insanity, and the men and women that climb difficult routes without harness and rope are crazy. To a few, free soloing is the purest way to confront the self, when mental strength is everything and one deals with death, and it leads to impressions of sheer existence that can change a life.

CONTENT

On an overhanging wall, the fingers pressed against tiny holds, with hundreds of meters of air below. No harness, no rope - nothing that would stop a fall. Free soloing, the true passion of Alexander Huber. He describes his nerve-wracking solos and creates a tribute to more than 100 years of free soloing - from early pioneers like Paul Preuß to the great ascents of Wolfgang Güllich and the most recent achievements of Hansjörg Auer. Accounts by other climbers and incredible photography complete this amazing book.
