In this essay, Muir tells his experience of climbing to the top of a tree and riding it for hours through a wild Sierra storm. As he writes, “the danger to life and limb is hardly greater than one would experience crouching deprecatingly beneath a roof.” This selection is part of the full length audiobook, "Storm: Stories of Survival From Land and Sea."
