The Last Blue Mountain by Ralph Barker is the heart-rending true story of the
\n1957 expedition to Mount Haramosh in the Karakoram range in Pakistan. With the
\nsummit beyond reach, four young climbers are about to return to camp.<\/p>\n
Their brief pause to enjoy the view and take photographs is interrupted by an
\navalanche which sweeps Bernard Jillott and John Emery hundreds of feet down
\nthe mountain into a snow basin. Miraculously, they both survive the fall. Rae
\nCulbert and Tony Streather risk their own lives to rescue their friends, only
\nto become stranded alongside them.<\/p>\n
The group’s efforts to return to safety are increasingly desperate, hampered
\nby injury, exhaustion and the loss of vital climbing gear. Against the odds,
\nJillott and Emery manage to climb out of the snow basin and head for camp,
\nhoping to reach food, water and assistance in time to save themselves and
\ntheir companions from an icy grave. But another cruel twist of fate awaits
\nthem.<\/p>\n
An acclaimed mountaineering classic in the same genre as Joe Simpson’s
\nTouching the Void, The Last Blue Mountain is an epic tale of friendship and
\nfortitude in the face of tragedy.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
