High Crimes: The Fate of Everest in an Age of Greed
from Hyperion
Price: $8.97

Customer Review:

Book: 5 stars, Audio: 3 stars
This is only the second audio book I have "read" so it didn't occur to me to look closely at the case until I was 3/4 of the way thru. I FAIL! It was abridged. I HATE abridged books! I finished it, then went to the library and signed out the book.

The Sierra High Route: Traversing Timberline Country
from Mountaineers Books
Price: $11.02

Customer Review:

My girlfriend and I now refer to this book as 'Stevie' after spending a month thru-hiking the SHR with it this fall. I'm not sure that Mr Roper would approve of having his name taken in vain, but we sure took a liking to his style and found that his words of wisdom quickly became our loyal... more info

The High Sierra: Peaks, Passes, and Trails
from Mountaineers Books
Price: $135.91

Customer Review:

I've used the book to plan several 3-7 day long cross-country treks in the High Sierras. I am not a climber, so I kept it simple at class 2-3 passes and peaks. It required doing my own homework with a USGS map. The information is kept to the minimum, i.e. it shows the difficulty of a pass, its... more info
