Publisher's Summary

Defiance led Lisa Thompson to the male-dominated world of mountain climbing. But after battling breast cancer, she needed to understand the motivations behind the risks she took while climbing. Finding Elevation is more than her climbing memoir. It is an examination of the human spirit and motivation.

Listeners will be gripped by Lisa's path from amateur mountain climber to world-class mountaineer as she:

- Becomes the second American woman to summit K2

- Conquers the world's most dangerous mountains

- Defines her own limits, and

- Discovers what she's truly capable of

In this inspirational book, listeners will be moved by Lisa's story of heartbreak, resilience, and the discovery that we must define our own boundaries, find our own happiness, and face our fears head-on.
