PA, 1991, 1st edition. 211 pp, color photos. Ascents included Tawoche and Menglugtse in Nepal. Roskelley, one of mountain climbing's more prominent figures, describes two of his Himalayan climbs: Tawoche's East Face in Nepal (summited 1984) and Menlungste's Southeast Ridge in Tibet (attempted 1990). In addition to detailing the climbs, Roskelley offers his climbing ethics: a quick alpine-style climb is preferable to porter-supported battering of the route by teams of climbers; depend on skill and experience; opt out when luck is given too big a part in the climb. His point of view is that of a family man approaching middle age, yet his language is that of latter-day climbers. Hardcover, DJ, Fine. SIGNED by John Roskelley, Jeff Lowe, Greg Child and Jim Wickwire.
