Detailed Product Description


SIGNED by Pete Schoening

Seattle, 1977, 1st edition. 171 pp, color photos, illustrations, maps. This paperback is the true first edition. Used paperback. Very Good. 

This paperback is the first edition of Craig's book. It was later revised in hardcover, however, this edition has some different photographic plates.  Photo of Pete Schoening below is one example that is not included in the revised edition.


This book is an an account of a 1974 climbing from a camp in the USSR when many climbers died. 

This was the first time the Pamirs had been open to foreigners in decades, so the team comprised some of the best American climbers of the day: John Roskelley, Bob Craig, Gary Ullin, John Marts, Fred Stanley, John Evans, Allen Steck, Frank Sarnquits, Bruce Carson, Molly Higgins, Pete Schoening, Chris Kopczynski, Jeff Lowe, Jed Williamson, Marty Hooey, Peter Lev, etc. One American, Gary Ullin died in an avalanche, and eight female Soviet climbers in one team also died.  

Bob Craig has made many ascents in Colorado and the Tetons. He was director of the Aspen Institute for Humanistic Studies for more than a decade and later became president of the Keystone Center for Continuing Education.
