Real Survival Stories

Available for over a year

In 1991, Mount Everest is a very different place than it is today. A young American arrives at the remote outpost of Base Camp, intent on tackling the planet’s tallest peak. Using the last of his student loan, Dan Mazur has blagged his way onto a Soviet climbing team. But his unlikely friendship with the group will come under the severest strain as things unravel on the mountain. When his partner collapses near the summit, Dan must make a terrible choice. What happens next will change him forever… A Noiser production, written by Angus Gavan McHarg.
