Lost near lethal crevasses and cliffs in a blinding whiteout blizzard is the last place anyone would want to be... Windy Corner on Denali has claimed lives, fingers, and toes.

It seems like the place for risky adrenaline seekers. In this book, the author shares the lessons Denali teaches on managing goals and risks. Everyone takes chances at some time in their lives, even if it's driving down the highway. Becoming a risk manager rather than a risk taker is what will keep you alive during difficult times.
