On the evening of 25 September 2007, two young climbers were caught in a lahar on the slopes of Mount Ruapehu, after a volcanic explosion. William's friend, James Christie, had to leave him behind while he went in search for help in the dark. This is William's story of beating the odds. He also writes about his active childhood and teen years, when his love for adventure, sport and the outdoors was fostered by family, friends and teachers. Even after losing his lower leg, William continues to find joy and inspiration from tramping, mountaineering, cycling, kayaking and diving. For William, every day really is a good day. A book you must read! William is a local hero from the North Shore
