Purja shows how leadership, integrity, and collaboration drive world's greatest climbing feats, including the first-ever winter ascent of Pakistan's K2—another mountaineering milestone that he achieved i...n January 2021. Both profound and inspiring, this intimate book reveals what it takes to go miles beyond the possible.
