Seven Dances Along the Abyss is a nonfiction exploration of risk, beauty, humility, and survival in wild places.

Built around seven significant journeys , the book moves through mountains, Arctic sea ice, avalanche terrain, , bear country, and the inner terrain of human decision-making.

At its heart, the book shows how people manage risk without being ruled by fear. Through personal expeditions—Mount Logan, Ellesmere Island, Colorado’s high peaks, avalanche terrain—and broader stories of wildlife, climate, and history, it examines the narrow line between ambition and restraint, wonder and consequence.
