Detailed Product Description
New York, 1952, 1st edition. 213 pp, 17 b/w photos. Hardcover with dust jacket. Jacket may be very chipped. Very Good. First ascent of the highest peak of the Cordillera Huayhuash in 1950. Yerupaja is a 21,769 foot (6635 meters) peak in the Cordillera Huayhuash in Peru, the second highest in that country. This book recounts the first ascent by a group of seven college students, 5 from Harvard and 2 from Stanford. The peak is known as El Carnicero (the Butcher) because of the knife-edged sharpness of its summit ridge. This is one of the most difficult Andean peaks.
