This book was released on 2018-03-16 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mount McKinley and Mountain Climbers' Proofs The number of persons interested in mountain cering increased by leaps and bounds in the latter half of the nineteenth century, and with the steady expansion of mountain-club memberships, there grew up an increasing desire to make first ascents, that is, to be the first person to tread on a virgin peak. After all the big peaks of the European Alps were ascended, European climbers who could go no farther afield began to ascend smaller peaks, until to day the merest rocklet is sought out in the search for novelty. Climbers with larger bank accounts turned their attention to big peaks in all parts of the world. The Rocky Mountains, the Andes, the Caucasus, the New Zealand Alps, the African snowy ranges, the Himalaya, all have been attacked and some of their peaks at least have borne the imprint of hobnailed shoes.

Book excerpt: A dream list of the most celebrated climbing destinations in North America, each explored in depth. Climbing Rock features some of the most classic and cutting-edge climbing areas across the magnificent and the most diverse landscapes of North America. The author recommends twenty-two of the best climbing areas to be found, spanning the year's seasons: ranging from Rifle, CO, in spring, to Canada's Bugaboos in the summer, to New York's Shawangunks in the fall, to Mexico's Potrero Chico in winter. These legendary locations cover the full spectrum of climbing experiences, including masterful big-wall free-climbing on Yosemite's El Capitan; desert trad climbing at Red Rock, NV, and Indian Creek, UT; classic sport climbing in Rumney, NH, and Red River Gorge, KY; oceanside cragging in California; and bouldering in Bishop, CA, and Chattanooga, TN. François Lebeau's artful photographs uniquely capture both the stark beauty of the rock walls and the adventurous spirit of those who journey upward. Climbing Rock is the perfect book for anyone interested in climbing, from athletes of all abilities to readers who appreciate breathtaking photography of improbable physical feats across stunning North American landscapes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mountain Climbing Hat is the lure which every year draws perhaps a million people often far from their homes to face discomfort or danger that they may laboriously climb a few hundred or thousand feet? The fascination Of danger at tracts but few; many more are repelled by it. The explanation doubtless lies much deeper. The mountain climber enjoys the exhilaration gained from difficulties overcome. It is exer cise in the open, and an ascent to freer and more inspiring air and scene. The impulse is perhaps an inheritance from out of the remote primitive life Of the human race, which in an other age found expression in fantastic forms of nature-worship.

And then they are also intended for all who can sympathize with deeds of daring, or who find a rare enjoyment in studying descriptions of Nature's wilder, grander, and sublimer landscapes.
