Отрывок из книги

Many people helped to make this book possible as well as the experiences upon which it is based. I owe them deep gratitude. I would like to acknowledge at least a few of the many.

Thank you, Linda, for your tolerance of my passion for climbing mountains. I am blessed to have a sister like you.

Anna, your patience was awesome during our practice rock climbs. Alex, during our climb, I sometimes felt like a fool, but you never treated me like one. You both are awesome guides.

Thank you, John, for locating the only size small, 50-liter Gregory Alpinisto pack in North America and getting it to me before I left for Papua. The pack performed admirably in challenging conditions. Its bright yellow color made me very visible both in the jungle and during the climb, which the guides appreciated.
