Customer Reviews

Haven't read it yet.

Canadian climber/photographer and author Jim Haberl was killed last week outside of Anchorage, Alaska. He is Alaska's twelfth victim of an avalanche this year. Interest in his book should increase and I am no exception. I especially want to read his book now that the thing he loved the most has claimed his life. He was 41 years old.

Five captivating stories

Jim Haberl's second book 'Risking Adventure', details five personal accounts of climbs/treks around the world. You need not be a climber to enjoy this book; Jim's a natural storyteller, and you will experience suspense, joy, sadness, and laughter. The photography, also Jim's, is incredible, and provides further insight to the extremes Jim has experienced.
