Synopsis by Tracie Cooper
This documentary examines the small yet enormously talented group of high-altitude skiers who have dedicated their lives to scaling and skiing the world's highest peaks without the use of supplemental oxygen. After reaching the top of Mt. Everest -- referred to as the "Death Zone" -- these athletes put on their skis to tackle the incredibly dangerous descent back down.
