Steve House - Beyond the Mountain:
Called "the best high altitude climber in the world today" by Reinhold Messner, Steve House is an advocate of the "fast and light" ascent, and embraces an approach to alpine climbing that emphasizes conservation and respect for the environment. House has completed first ascents, established new routes and climbed extensively throughout the Rockies, northern ranges, the Alps, and Himalaya. He was nominated for the Piolet d'Or in 2004 for his 41-hour solo ascent of K7, and won in 2006 for a new route on The Rupal Face of Nanga Parbat. As a writer and chronicler of his alpine expeditions, House brings his first book, Beyond the Mountain, to Banff.
