Synopsis
Of all the games mountaineers play, the hardest – and cruellest – is climbing the fourteen peaks over 8,000 metres in winter. Award-winning author Bernadette McDonald tells how Poland’s ice warriors made winter their own, perfecting what they dubbed ‘the art of suffering’. Winter 8000 is the story of true adventure at its most demanding.
