What happens when the line between thrill and danger disappears?
Join us for an unforgettable evening of storytelling featuring first responders, survivors and seasoned mountaineers who have faced the realities of life above the tree line. Raw, gripping, and deeply human, these true stories explore the high stakes of alpine adventure, the spirit of rescue and camaraderie, and what it means to be prepared when everything goes wrong.
