Kilimanjaro towers above the diverse nature of East Africa, dwarfing some of the largest landliving mammals in the world. But even as the most prominent mountain of its continent, its summit stands accessible to most. While the climb requires apt preparation and is most comfortably done in good physical shape, the mountain draws in visitors both for its challenge and its charm. Situated in the centre of a national park, the journey to the mountain takes challengers through iconic, wild Africa. This book tells the mountain's tale, from its formation and through history, and provides insight into the nature at its roots and slopes. The book also provides information on some of the many routes up the mountain and guidance to tackle the climate and extreme altitude climbers will meet on their way to the summit. The author has trekked and climbed for more than 45 years, has climbed 8,000-meter peaks, and has led hundreds of clients to the summit of Kilimanjaro on his numerous visits to "The Roof of Africa."

Mustagh Ata er med sine 7546 meter ikke et af de allerhøjeste bjerge i verden. Det er heller ikke et af de sværeste set fra et teknisk synspunkt. Men med sin kombination af relativt stor højde og moderat sværhed krydret med ofte problemfyldte vejrforhold er det en stor mundfuld og en god udfordring. Specielt hvis du kommer fra trekkingtoppene i Nepal med højder på op til 6500 meter eller har klatret bjerge som Aconcagua, er Mustagh Ata et bjerg, der kan minde om at bestige et 8000 meter højt bjerg. Bogen beskriver en ekspedition til bjerget, men giver dig også en række faktuelle oplysninger om området, rejsen dertil samt om selve bjerget. Bogen er illustreret primært med forfatterens egne smukke foto.

En novellesamling om klatring og bjergbestigning, der også fungerer som en delvis biografi over en klatrers liv. Novellerne stammer fra artikler til blade og aviser, men er omarbejdet for at være mere letlæselige. En sjælden perle på det danske bogmarked.
