2005. This American Alpine Club map-guide to the Kyrgyzstan region features beautiful satellite-based topo maps AND provides practical & historical text about several of its most interesting mountain ranges, the Tien Shan and the Pamir Alai, along with anumber of smaller groups. Peaks for the Western Kokshaal-Too, Ala-Archa and Karashvin mountain ranges are included.
The text for this AAC map-guide was written by Garth Willis of The Alpine Fund, a Kyrgyzstan-based charity that takes at-risk children into the mountains. The cartography is by Martin Gamache of the Alpine Mapping Guild, who has turned topo maps into an art form.
