Outdoor Survival

Il rapporto dell'uomo con la montagna è antichissimo. La montagna, spesso ostile e pericolosa, l'ha protetto dai pericoli, gli ha permesso di cogliere il mondo dall'alto, nel suo insieme, di guardare il cielo e sentirsi più vicino all'infinito. È il luogo in cui l'uomo ritrova sé stesso, spingendosi oltre i propri limiti, nella solitudine delle cime, pur in mezzo ai compagni di cordata. Questo audiolibro è un mosaico di storie di eroi che si sono distinti sulle vette più alte del mondo, realizzando imprese eroiche, salvataggi rischiosi.
