Synopsis
It is hoped this guide will materially contribute to the multiple rewards of enjoyment and knowledge of the Cascade Range in Washington. This volume covers the Cascades from the Columbia River to the demarcation along the Skykomish River, Stevens Pass, and the Wenatchee River; an Oregon climb, Stein's Pillar, is included. This copy is divided into arbitrary sections generally following principle drainage areas. The objective of the guide is to define established routes though some are recognized on a somewhat arbitrary basis. Those peaks and routes that are traditionally popular, regardless of location, and those that are readily accessible on a weekend are logically emphasized. In general, an equitable rather that a selective coverage is intended.

Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Softcover. Condition: As New. This is the volume one of three that Fred Beckey wrote for climbing in the Cascades. His Cascade Alpine Guide series is considered classic information from one of the nation's godfathers of Western climbing. Columbia River to Stevens Pass features expert information on more than 300 climbing and high routes in the Cascades, including Mount Rainier.Here you'll find geographical, historical, and geological overviews of the majestic North Cascades region, plus important tips on safety and backcountry usage and enough technical and grade information to make clear exactly what type of route you are embarking upon. Without a doubt, this exhaustive resource should be a staple in every serious mountaineer's collection. Friedrich Wolfgang Beckey (1923 ? 2017), known as Fred Beckey, was an American rock climber, mountaineer and book author, who in seven decades of climbing achieved hundreds of first ascents of some of the tallest peaks and most important routes throughout Alaska, the Canadian Rockies and the Pacific Northwest.Among the Fifty Classic Climbs of North America, seven were established by Beckey, often climbing with some of the best known climbers of each generation.
