Hi all

I didn’t know where to put this so opted for here.

I’ve been listening to a lot of podcasts and audible books at home.

any recommendations, I’ve got Nick Bullock - Tides but am after some more.

thanks

Dan

A short walk in the Hindu Kush by Eric newby.

The Calling by Barry Blanchard is on audible and really good as a audiobook.

Seven Years in Tibet by Heinrich Harrer is on there.

I also have the push by Caldwell, on the nose by Hans Florine and confessions by Mark Twight that are good.  

I really enjoyed the following Climbing/mountaineering books on  Audible:

• Into the silence, Wade Davis
• In Some Lost place, Sandy Allan
• Beyond the mountain, Steve House
• Ascent - Sir Chris Bonington
• Everest 1953, Coffrey
• K2, Roberts, Visteurs

The Accent of Rum Doodle

A must read/listen for all those with an interest in the great age of British mountaineering, advanced navigation, high altidue scientific study of the boiling point of ice, Yogistani cooking and of cource the facinating subject of fiances.

'To read of an accent of Mont Blanc by the Grepon route is one thing, to read of the accent of Rum Doodle is, as Totter once said, quite another!'

Into Thin Air by Jon Krakauer and The climb by Anatoli Boukreev are both good (and opposing) accounts of the same Everest tragedy.
