No Way Down

The book dives into the dangers faced by climbers on K2—I'm curious what motivated the author to bring this story to light and how he approached researching such a perilous event.

The descriptions of the decision-making and danger felt so vivid — I kept wondering how much of that was based on firsthand accounts versus reconstruction.

Sometimes the details got pretty intense, and I wondered if the focus was on creating suspense or truly capturing the complexities of high-altitude survival.
