Sherpa legend told of an enchanted valley with an invisible village, Shangri-La, that was said to be a place of great beauty. The valley became the nemesis of legendary mountaineer Edmund Hillary, who travelled there to climb 7,129m Baruntse, but succumbed to the irresistible draw of Makalu, the great black mountain which towered over the valley.

Only a few years ago, Alex Honnold was little known beyond a small circle of hardcore climbers. Today, at the age of 30, he is probably the most famous adventure athlete in the world. In that short time, he has proven his expertise in many styles of climbing and has shattered speed records, pioneered routes, and won awards within each discipline. More spectacularly still, he has pushed the most extreme and dangerous form of climbing far beyond the limits of what anyone thought was possible.

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.

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.

I ghiacciai e le vette del Monte Bianco, le sue pareti di granito e le sue creste di neve dove s’incontrano Italia, Francia e Svizzera, formano paesaggi di straordinario fascino. La prima ascensione ai 4810 metri della cima è stata compiuta nel 1786 da Jacques Balmat e Michel-Gabriel Paccard. Da allora, uomini e donne d’avventura come Edward Whymper e Albert Frederick Mummery, Giusto Gervasutti e Walter Bonatti, Christophe Profit, Catherine Destivelle e tanti altri hanno compiuto imprese straordinarie. Il libro racconta le loro speranze, i loro trionfi, le tragedie che hanno segnato questi due secoli e mezzo.

Ha senso, in un ecosistema così fragile, perseguire un modello di sviluppo fondato sulla crescita, sull’aumento anno dopo anno di turisti e di impianti? Perché altre culture, dall’Himalaya alle Ande, hanno immaginato l’esistenza di montagne sacre, luoghi da cui l’uomo dovesse restare lontano? Cosa ci insegna questa idea di limite? Se sulle carte geografiche non esistono più spazi bianchi e inesplorati, in montagna non esistono più vette inviolate, in particolare sulle Alpi.
