Lincoln Hall is one of Australia's best-known mountaineers, with a climbing career that spans three decades, most notably in the Himalaya, Antarctica, and the Andes. He had a key role in the first Australian ascent of Mount Everest in 1984, and his account of that expedition,
White Limbo
, became a bestseller. Hall's second book,
The Loneliest Mountain
, recounted a journey to Antarctica in a small yacht and the first ascent of Mount Minto.
Fear No Boundary
is Hall's biography of his friend Sue Fear, who died mountaineering in the Himalaya while Hall was on Mount Everest in 2006. He has published one work of fiction,
Blood on the Lotus
, a historical novel set in Nepal and Tibet.

Hall, who has worked as a trekking guide and edited adventure magazines, is a director of the Australian Himalayan Foundation. He was awarded the Medal of the Order of Australia in 1987 for his services to mountaineering. He lives with his wife, Barbara Scanlan, and their two sons, Dylan and Dorje, in Wentworth Falls in the Blue Mountains, New South Wales. His website address is
