註釋"Kropp's first attempt at scaling Everest unassisted ended in frustration when he was forced to turn back only 350 feet - one hour - from the summit, his strength drained, his morale crushed. Despite this setback, and in the face of rapidly deteriorating weather that would result in the deadliest season in Everest's history, Kropp steeled himself for a second attempt. Just days after the legendary storm that claimed the lives of eight climbers, he tried again and made it to the top of the world - without Sherpa aid, without bottled oxygen. He then loaded up his bike for the harrowing 7,000-mile trek back to Stockholm."--BOOK JACKET.
