Blurb (as printed inside the book jacker):
"On 22nd December 2023, Anna Wells embarked on an ambitious challenge: to climb all 282 Munros in a single winter season.
Over 83 relentless days, she faced Scotland’s mountains in their fiercest conditions. Some days she battled alone through storms, whiteouts, blizzards, and long, dark nights. On others she skipped along golden, snowy ridgelines with friends at sunset. Along the way, friends and strangers alike offered meals, accommodation and support, weaving immeasurable richness into her story.
Breaking the Snowline is an intimate account not only of the mountains Anna climbed, but also of the inner journey she embraced – motivation, burnout, self-doubt, joy, fear and, above all, passion. Blending raw honesty with heartfelt reflections on hard-won life lessons and the meaning of confidence, it is a story of determination that celebrates the importance of chasing a dream and living authentically."
