Muhl spent two seasons on the north side of Everest (2006, 2007) before succeeding as the 7th South African to reach the summit. In this book, he details the disastrous season of 2006 when he turned around at 8700m and his subsequent return in 2007 for eventual success. He has climbed six of the seven summits and in 2009 attempted Broad Peak. A profusely illustrated and very nicely produced book.
