A posthumously published collection of Rowell's stunning photographs of the High Sierra. "Near timberline, cross-country travel becomes sheer delight. Even below timberline, open stands of Jeffrey, lodgepole, and whitebark pines are never so thick that a person can't find an easy pathway where it appears no human has ever gone before. Sierra Club backcountry pack trips came up with the motto, 'Life begins at 10,000 feet'" (Rowell, foreword, pages 6-7). A nearly fine copy. (#166241).
