Detailed Product Description
Washington, D.C., Smithsonian, January 1988. The full staple bound softcover issue is present. Very Good condition. A nice 12 page cover article describing ice climbing in near Valdez, Alaska. With 13 color photos. Articles like this one were reprinted in Jon's first book, Eiger Dreams. Text was by Jon Krakauer, photos was James Balog who later did some excellent books on the retreating glaciers of the world. With the exception of April Valdez offers year round ice climbing. Valdez's abundance of glaciers allows for summer ice climbing adventures. In winter Valdez's many waterfalls freeze over for fabulous ice climbing on ice falls. Icebergs in Valdez Glacier Lake also allow for ice climbing November through March, while the lake is frozen locking them in place.
