FROM THE DUST JACKET:

Walt Borneman and Todd Caudle draw from decades of alpine experience to present the words and images in this book. Insightful essays colorfully detail the geology, history and legacy of these peaks, while dramatic photographs provide a visual representation of what it’s like to be there. In tandem, these elements give even the armchair traveler the sensation of walking high above timberline.

As an added bonus, black and white photographs from the archives of the Colorado Mountain Club show what it was like to climb Colorado’s high peaks a century ago. Freelance photographers and avid climbers Dave Showalter and David Anschicks also contributed to this book.
