Mountain Survival: Thin Air, Sharp Cliffs, and Your Wits
By Steven Wild
You don't need a beard, a buffalo jacket, or a death wish to survive the mountains-but you do need a plan. From scaling ridgelines to melting snow for tea, Mountain Survival is your no-nonsense, slightly sarcastic, and wildly practical guide to staying alive in high places.
Veteran outdoorsman Steven Wild shares hard-earned lessons, lifesaving tips, and a few humbling mistakes in this trail-tested handbook. Learn how to navigate unpredictable weather, build shelter when the wind won't quit, spot edible plants (and avoid the ones that'll ruin your week), and descend with all your limbs still attached.
Whether you're a weekend wanderer or a high-altitude addict, this guide will teach you how to think clearly, move smart, and laugh especially when the mountain's trying to kill you.
Survive smarter. Climb higher. And never trust a sunny morning.
