Abstract
The weather looked perfect when Jamie Andrew and his closest friend, Jamie Fisher set off to climb the formidable North Face of Les Droites in the French Alps in 1999. But a sudden and ferocious storm hit them 10,000 feet up the mountain. They were trapped on a narrow ridge in temperatures of -30C, battered by winds so strong the rescue helicopters could not reach them. After five nightmarish nights doggedly clinging to life, Jamie Andrew was finally rescued; but his friend Jamie Fisher had died beside him on the last night. -- From inside cover
