Book excerpt: For a traveler on the black ribbons of highways that stretch across the Great Plains, the sight of the Rocky Mountains rising up in the west is a majestic o the treeless peaks shimmer in winter with a white mantle of snow and, in summer, seem to erupt through the green belt of vegetation encircling the lower slopes. Colorado Above Treeline brings the state's highest country well within your reach. Author Jeremy Agnew describes what defines the tundra, the history that has marked it, and the kinds of plants and creatures that inhabit this unique environment. He then leads you on trips to these open, remote expanses, including scenic drives, rugged 4WD routes, and classic hikes, along the way offering many opportunities for further exploration. Practical information, fullcolor photographs and maps, and alpine anecdotes round out this introduction to some of Colorado's most celebrated scenery. Book jacket.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fourteener mania, the phenomena characterized by a seemingly obsessive drive to summit The List of all fifty-four of Colorado¿s 14,000-foot peaks, is an older tradition than many may realize. Along with intensely positive experiences in climbing is the possibility of the opposite extreme¿to become stranded, severely injured, or even killed, in disturbingly easy ways. This book explores this dark side of climbing. When an accident happens on a 14er, the victim is far from help and in an environment where rescue is difficult at best. The book is full of hair-raising stories of these disasters and resue attempts and also aids in avoiding such disasters.

This book was released on 2021-04-29 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Colorado's high country is rich with amazing scenery and big, beautiful fish. Unfortunately, many of these highland fisheries are impractical to access. But thanks to veteran fishing guide and writer Phil Tereyla, over 60 mountain lakes in Colorado that are under three miles to access in all corners of the state are now fully outlined and covered in this wonderful new flyfishing guidebook, the Flyfisher's Guide to Colorado's Easy Access Mountain Lakes (Wilderness Adventures Press, 2021). Difficulty to access does not equate to quality fishing; many of Colorado's easy-access alpine gems host fantastic fishing for large trout, including lots of drive-to lakes and reservoirs. Most of these lakes also have the same signature scenery and solitude that has made Colorado so popular for fishing and otherwise. Tereyla shows us where to catch all three subspecies of native cutthroat trout (greenback, Colorado River, and Rio Grande), arctic grayling, big brown trout, lake trout, rainbow trout, cuttbows, splake, tiger trout, tiger muskie, and more. He also covers tributary streams, inlets and outlets, the right times to pursue these awesome fish, and the flies that work. This book is perfect for families, aging and disabled anglers, and those who would rather spend their day casting to large trout than hiking. It also makes a great gift for the angler who has it all. Don't miss this opportunity to indulge in all that Colorado's alpine lakes have to offer! Pick up your copy today!
