Book Signing at Prairie Flower Beads

Prairie Flower Beads is hosting a book signing with Portage native Paul Huebner.
Paul is a mountain climber, photographer and author.  Paul's book titled "Hanging Up the Rope" will be available for sale this day.  The book takes you on a spectacular climbing adventure in the Alps of Europe, the mountains of Alaska, the Colorado Rockies, Canada and the North Cascades, the volcanoes of Mexico and the Andes of Bolivia and Ecuador.

His book describes in vivid detail the many risks, mishaps and close calls he's experienced on his adventures, including the miraculous escape from a bombardment of falling rocks and lighting while leading a team of amateurs in the Canadian Rockies.

Huebner enlightens you on the ever present question of why climbers take the inconceivable risks and expose themselves to the incredible hazards and he explains why he finally decided to hang up the rope.
