Filled with epic outdoor photography and a wide spectrum of profiles, this visually rich volume celebrates the courage and persistence that defines every climber's journey.

Sensitive to the experiences of beginning climbers -- and of the truth that every climber, no matter their level, must repeatedly face the uncertainty of gaining a foothold -- this book offers a global portrait of what it means to move upward despite fear, doubt, or the unfamiliar.

Featuring profiles from a range of backgrounds and disciplines, each story reflects early attempts, setbacks, breakthroughs, and the quiet determination that makes climbing a lifelong practice of beginning again and again.

The accompanying photography -- alpine vistas, desert rocks, sunlit gym holds, nighttime campsites, and candid moments of camaraderie -- immerses readers in the climbing lifestyle with remarkable immediacy.

  • 22 profiles that highlight climbers from a range of backgrounds and disciplines.
  • Includes bouldering, big-wall routes, ice climbing, deep-water soloing, and much more.
  • Equally suited to those just entering the sport or seasoned pros seeking renewed inspiration.
  • Basic climbing information, a glossary, and a grade-conversion chart are all featured.
  • Stunning photography serves as motivation to explore outside one's comfort zone.
