Review:

With this reprint of Beckey's classic work, today's climbers will be inspired to seek out those lofty Cascadian summits, just as I did twenty-four years ago. Beckey's writing, including his tales of rivalry and pranks, are as timeless now as they were then.--Alan Kearney, author, Mountaineering in Patagonia
