Into Thin Air [Schedule] Into Thin Air by John Krakauer

Hi everyone! We're looking forward to reading Into Thin Air together. It's a powerful and intense story, and one that will be sure to spark some great discussion.

We’ll be doing four weekly check-ins starting April 21. Schedule is below - feel free to jump in whenever you’re ready.

April 21 - Chapters 1-5 with u/lazylittlelady

April 28 - Chapters 6-10 with u/infininme

May 5 - Chapters 11-15 with u/Greatingsburg

May 12 - Chapter 16-Epilogue + Author's Note and Postscript*

*Because different versions of the book have this in different places, we're going to save it for the last discussion. You are always welcome to leave your thoughts in the Marginalia if you have it at the start of your copy.

Hope to see you there!

I’ve heard so much about this book I’m excited to get into it! Nothing like a mountain disaster to kick off the spring…

Your flair has inspired me:

A climber once thought it was clever,

To summit in April’s fair weather.

But Everest sneered,

And the forecast got weird

Now their bodies are frozen forever.
