Everett Ruess
Everett Ruess was twenty years old when he vanished into the canyonlands of southern Utah, spawning the myth of a romantic desert wanderer that survives to this day. It was 1934, and Ruess was in the fifth year of a quest to record wilderness beauty in works of art whose value was recognized by such contemporary artists as Dorothea Lange, Ansel Adams, and Edward Weston. From his home in Los Angeles, Ruess walked, hitchhiked, and rode burros up the California coast, along the crest of the Sierra Nevada, and into the deserts of the Southwest. In the first probing biography of Everett Ruess, acclaimed environmental historian Philip L. Fradkin goes beyond the myth to reveal the realities of Ruess’s short life and mysterious death and finds in the artist’s astonishing afterlife a lonely hero who persevered.
The Climb
Everest, the major motion picture from Universal Pictures, is set for wide release on September 18, 2015. Read The Climb, Anatoli Boukreev (portrayed by Ingvar Sigurðsson in the film) and G. Weston DeWalt’s compelling account of those fateful events on Everest. In May 1996 three expeditions attempted to climb Mount Everest on the Southeast Ridge route pioneered by Sir Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay in 1953. Crowded conditions slowed their progress. Late in the day twenty-three men and women-including expedition leaders Scott Fischer and Rob Hall-were caught in a ferocious blizzard. Disoriented and out of oxygen, climbers struggled to find their way down the mountain as darkness approached. Alone and climbing blind, Anatoli Boukreev brought climbers back from the edge of certain death. This new edition includes a transcript of the Mountain Madness expedition debriefing recorded five days after the tragedy, as well as G. Weston DeWalt's response to Into Thin Air author Jon Krakauer.
The climb
Nel maggio del 1996 tre spedizioni tentavano la scalata della Cresta Sud Est dell’Everest. Ogni gruppo comprendeva alpinisti di grande esperienza ma anche scalatori meno preparati che avevano pagato decine di migliaia di dollari per arrivare in vetta. E proprio nelle vicinanze della cima, la sera del 10, ventitré uomini e donne si ritrovarono in una feroce tempesta. Disorientati, senza più ossigeno, lottarono per la salvezza, lasciando nella neve e nel ghiaccio cinque vittime. Anatolij Bukreev, grande alpinista e guida esperta delle altissime quote, riuscì a portare un gruppo stremato al riparo, prima di ricominciare a cercare altri sopravvissuti, da solo e in condizioni estreme.
