description: Mark Inglis was working and climbing on Mt Cook, when, at age 23, he and his companion were trapped by the weather on Middle Peak. They were 13 days in an ice cave and both suffered such severe frostbite that their legs had to be amputated below the knee.This book takes us from childhood to Mt Cook, through the experience trapped there in 1982, and on to University, becoming a Research Scientist, making medla-winning wines with Montana Wines, and then back to sports and the Paralympic Games in 2000. The culmination of this book is 2002, when he once more climbed Mt Cook.
