Best audio book of this year. The sound effects are awesome. As Hans notes in the credits, the writing is a team effort along with excellent editors. Having seen him on video though - I could hear his voice pop out from the hilarious antics in this retelling of his many ascents on El Cap. Loved it. Helped me drive away from Yosemite- as I planned my return next season.

Really enjoyed his first hand account, felt almost like a memoir but he brings the moments on the wall to life so vividly. Its so inspiring. He talks about the 10,000 hours. I can't help but ask myself, what are my 10,000 hours? -- Also, I love it when the author is the narrator.
