Hans Florine is a big-wall climbing legend in his own time. He holds the speed record on the Nose route of El Capitan, a 3,000-foot granite cliff in Yosemite Valley that's considered the Everest of the rock-climbing world. But Florine's story is not one of super-human athletic prowess; it's one of persistence and dogged determination. In 30 years of climbing, he's ascended the Nose a mind-blowing, death-defying 100 times, more than anyone else ever has, and most likely ever will. In On the Nose, Florine describes the most dangerous, pivotal, and inspirational of those climbs.

Fascinating

Packed full of detail regarding Florine’s conquest of El Cap.
It was a great insight into big wall climbing. I enjoyed hearing the author narrate the book. It’s great to see how one can pursue ones passion whilst not being thrust into the edges of society. Florine is inspirational to all us weekend warriors.
The music in the early parts of the book were just a bit cheesy and took me out of the story.
All in all I great book tho !
