Detailed Product Description
California, 2022, 1st edition. 328 pp, 160 photos, color and b/w. Hardcover with a pictorial cover. No dust jacket issued. SIGNED on the title page by E.C. Joe Rock climbing throughout the Southern Sierra Nevada Mountains of California has been going about quietly for well over a century. The exploits of its pioneers into this beautiful mountain range have been infrequently documented in a few books, alpine journals, and magazines. The tales of these climbers in this area remain elusive in comparison to more mainstream places like Yosemite. Rites of Passage is a collection of those experiences written by a few aficionados of the Southern Sierra who have graciously shared their adventures for this book. Come join the campfire, kick back and indulge in the legacy of exploration, discovery, and adventure. ABOUT THE AUTHOR Eddie, �E.C.� Joe, a native of Bakersfield, started climbing in the Southern Sierra in 1974, and spent most of his free time exploring new climbing opportunities in the scattered locations in and around the Kern Canyon. He has established many first ascents and authored the Stonemasher Rock Climbing Guide to Kern Slabs (1981-82), and co-authored the Stonemasher Rock Climbing Guide to the Kern River Canyon and Environs (1983) with Richard Leversee. Back in the day, Eddie was generally regarded as the single most knowledgeable person for climbing information in the area. In the �90s, he assisted in the research of Southern Sierra peregrine falcons and was a founding member of the Southern Sierra Climbers' Association. Contributions by: Linda E. Adams Kathryn Allison Lee Aulman Ron Carson David Hickey Richard Leversee Joe Metz Dave Ohst Patrick Paul Randy Powers Kris Solem Randy Steele Brandon Thau Todd Vogel
