An inspiring memoir about a courageous woman's survival and recovery from an adventure-induced trauma - and the power of her dreams to overcome tragedy and live life to the fullest.

Her wilderness adventure turned into a nightmare. After skiing more than 200 miles along California's John Muir Trail, Jean faces death from a mountaineering accident on Mount Whitney. Broken and bleeding on the highest peak in the continental United States, she vows to realize her greatest dreams if she lives until morning. Her escape from the Sierra Nevada Mountains turns into an amazing five-day survival story. Jean's recovery is equally daunting.

In this outdoor adventure memoir, her three-decade journey takes her from the depths of despair and chronic pain, to the heights of the Himalayas and on travels around the world. When the specter of Mount Whitney continues to shatter her life, Jean befriends Tibetan lamas. Their ancient wisdom guides her on a path beyond her wildest dreams.

The physical and inner depths the author navigated were shared with such vivid detail. Her ability to observe and reflect on such harrowing experiences and powerful explorations were truly astounding. It was inspiring without being preachy.
I found the narration calming

Courageous and compelling.

I like the story but the writing style is a little boring. The narration also isn't engaging at all so that makes the writing style seem even more boring. I got half way through and the end of the book felt like a chore to finish.

Good story - boring writing and narration style

Hmm, as an outdoor adventurer I enjoyed aspects of this book. However I found her recollections too long winded and of over importance.

Long and self importance
