On December 22, 1972, the world discovered that 16 of the 45 passengers of the Uruguayan Air Force plane, which had crashed in the Andes ten weeks earlier, remained alive. No one could escape their astonishment. Without food, enduring extreme temperatures, facing all kinds of adversity and with little hope of rescue, they did the unimaginable to survive. Pedro Algorta never spoke of his experience in the Andes, as what happened in the mountains was a private matter for him. In The Mountains Are Still There he breaks his silence more than 50 years later and tells firsthand one of the most incredible stories of human survival and team spirit. His testimony is of great value to individuals and organizations who must overcome their own challenges. Rare are the times when a person exposes so much of their being, with such sincere and emotionally charged words. My memories of sharing with Pedro on the mountain all the feelings a human being can have - love, grief, anguish, pain, anxiety, fear, happiness and being born again - are very accomplished. Nando Parrado, Andes survivor and author of Milagro en los Andes
