Denali's Howl: The Deadliest Climbing Disaster on America's Wildest Peak by Andy Hall

3.0

This was a good, quick read about a climbing party that got stuck high up on Denali in the mother of all storms. It lasted for seven days and by the end 7 of the climbers died. The writing is okay, nothing special, the story is okay, perhaps if the author had delved more into the backgrounds of the climbers the reader would find them more sympathetic. As it is, they are more like cardboard characters because the reader doesn't really know much about them. One of my hobbies is reading books like this, so I enjoyed it, but its not as good as, for instance, "Into Thin Air" by Jon Krakauer.
