The Mountain Within: The True Story of the World’s Most Extreme Free-Ascent Climber

Huber, one of the best mountaineers of our generation, reveals the details of his many extreme alpine ascents - in which his only equipment is often a pair of shoes and a chalk bag. Clinging to the mountain walls, with muscles bulging as he makes his free ascent, Huber has become one of the world's most recognized and photographed extreme climbers. Along with many other legendary ascents detailed here, he and his brother, Thomas, set a new record of 2 hours and 46 minutes on The Nose of El Capitan, in the fall of 2007, a climb that usually takes three days.
