Susan Purvis first book is an unstoppable tour de force of excitement, emotion, and bravery. From the first page to the last, I was immersed in her wintry world. Beyond the fabulous storytelling and incredible adventures, lies a story at the heart of each one of us: What Is a Life Worth Living. This book should be at the top of every persons must-read list. --Lauren Walker, bestselling author of Energy Medicine Yoga and The Energy Medicine Yoga PrescriptionHaving spent a month in the hottest place on earth with Sue Purvis, I quickly realized that she was not only a tough explorer but an extraordinary soul.

A moving, inspiring tale of a beautiful partnership forged by two independent, rebellious souls -- one with two legs, the other with four. --Debbie Burke, award-winning author of Instrument of the DevilGo Find, a story of evolution and self-discovery as a woman and her dog struggle to enter the male macho clubs of the 90s but with ultimate success…the real story -- her gaining independence and autonomy teaching her black lab (and learning from her lab) search and rescue skills, in spite of the resistance of a male-dominated world of ski patrols and S&R groups. A good tale of an outlier doing well and the love of her dog and the impermanence we all face. --Jerry Roberts, retired avalanche forecaster presently working for Mountain WeatherMasters Fascinating, moving, and well written, Susan tells a multilayered story that appeals not just to mountain folk, dog
