Inspiring stories and lessons.
As a splitboarder I really enjoyed reading into the thoughts of one of the greatest knuckle draggers that helped shape our sport. It was a different read with a mix of lessons and stories with a flow that progressed well. Fun read!

Inspiring and insightful
Excellent read. A combination of autobiography, Backcountry lessons, life lessons, and it has pictures! I'm inspired to do better at everything when I read it. Really appreciate Jeremy's views and approach to life. Advice from his friends are excellent.

Fascinating book by a great adventurer!
I’ve been a huge fan of Jeremy Jones since the forum days. I followed much of his career through the course of my life, because not only is he a great snowboarder/backcountry shredder… He always provides really important information about safety, preparation, and things about the environment to be aware of. Tho book reads like a personal journey of understanding the Alpine lifestyle. Highly recommend!

Couldn't put it down
Brilliantly written, informative and inspiring. I'm already using new learned info as I mind surf the mountains from my windows. Already waiting for the wishful sequel that dives further into the environmental and indigenous factors.

Life Improving Book
I love this book. It is inspiring, fun, practical, and can even be deep if you read it that way.I have the audible version and I am on the second listen. I wish Jones had read it himself. The narrator is alright but certain words are mispronounced and certain sentences have the emphasis in the wrong place. I felt this sort of small error was an interruption to the magic that would happen if Jones was speaking directly.Nevertheless the book is motivating to me to live my best outdoors life. I am not an extreme skier but I push my own boundaries farther by hearing these stories and tidbits. I would love to keep listening to all the things Jones has to say. He probably thinks the book is done but I could ask a lot of questions and enjoy a second book with anything else he wants to say.

Worth the read if you enjoy mountaineering
First I read Extreme Alpinism by Twight and then was recommended this book - it was impossible to find locally and I could only find it on Amazon! It's a practical size to actually site and read and I enjoy the stories. I'd get it for friends that enjoy mountaineering.

Per splitboarders appassionati
Contiene un mix tra episodi della vita di Jones, trucchi e consigli per affrontare salite e discese, una disanima estremamente interessante sul mondo dello snowboard-alpinismo.L'impaginamento è fantastico, è come un diario di viaggio con foto, disegni, grafiche molto attraenti.OItre ad essere degli appassionati splitboarders, per leggerlo è necessario avere una buona conoscenza della lingua inglese. Difatti i testi sono molto lunghi, articolati, e scritti in un inglese che comprende slang, termini tecnici e non banali. Per me un must.

Dude should stick to riding
Narrative jumps all over the place. Probably should just stick to snowboarding.
