POLES APART, WITH SOME POINTY BITS IN BETWEEN by Vaughan de la Harpe and Sean Disney

"Life is either an adventure or nothing", observed Helen Keller. Of course, the concept of adventure is subjective. It's all about choice really. In the case of Poles Apart, the choice involves the adventure of a lifetime - to see what lies around the next bend, to seek out the unknown, to satisfy curiosity and to push the limits.

Poles Apart shares the adventures of Sean Disney and Vaughan de la Harpe as they travel around the globe to become the first South Africans to achieve the Explorers Grand Slam. To earn this accolade, a climber must successfully reach the summit of the highest mountain on each of the seven continents, and must ski haul to both the North and South Poles. This is a prestigious group that presently counts fewer than 50 people in the world as its members.
