As he teetered on a narrow rock ledge a yak's bellow short of the
stratosphere, with a rubber mask strapped to his face, a pair of
mittens the size of a sealion's flippers, and a drop of two
kilometres below him, it's fair to say Mark Horrell wasn't entirely
happy with the situation he found himself in. He had been an
ordinary hiker who had only read books about mountaineering. When
he signed up for an organised trek in Nepal with a group of elderly
ladies, little did he know that ten years later he would be
attempting to climb the world's highest mountain. But as he
travelled across the Himalayas, Andes, Alps and East Africa,
following in the footsteps of the pioneers, he dreamed up a
seven-point plan to gain the skills and experience which could turn
a wild idea into reality. Funny, incisive and heartfelt, his
journey provides a refreshingly honest portrait of the joys and
torments of a modern-day Everest climber.
