On Mountaineering

On Mountaineering is a get-out-and-do-it guide into the mountains. At its core lies a climbing journal about seven routes taken to high places of rock and ice in the US and Canadian Pacific coastal mountain ranges and abroad. A commentary introducing the “in the moment” chronicle of each trip plus a retrospective essay drawing lessons from each experience provide an echo of the climbs themselves—making each route an adventure both memorable and descriptive enough to ­follow on foot.
