Beyond the elements

Fire, Water, Air, and Rock Stephan Siegrist tells his story through a series of beautiful photographs taken over the last 20 years of his career as a professional alpinist. The large format linen book is a photo collection which builds on Stephan’s evolution as a climber and his relationship to the elements; fire, water, air and rock. He chronicles not only what lies beyond the element, but also life as a professional climber. With the help of writer Christian Ewers, stunning images from every continent, maps and overlays, this book is a personal testimonial of both, a professional climber and an inspiring personality.
