Fruit in Failure: Tales from Mountains I Never Climbed catalogues the author's diverse mountaineering exploits collected from almost forty years' rock and alpine climbing on six continents. While some chapters detail successful summits and survivals, most recount humiliating tales of failure, frustration and defeat. Filled with photos (print version only), the book unfolds as a project in solidarity with the vast sea of average adventurers who will never climb like a superstar, but who know something of the same yearning, enchantment and motivation that only the actual experience of climbing and standing among the great ranges can inspire.
