Detailed Product Description
Colorado, 1996, 1st ed, 3rd printing. 206 pp, b/w photos, topo maps. Paperback. Fine.

Ski mountaineering, snow climbs, technical routes. Pikes, Sangre de Cristo, San Juans. 23 peaks. 
 
- Technical Routes (How to get the vertical!)             
- Snow Climbs (routes, information, photos, maps)             
- Ski & Snowboard & Telemark Descents             
- Enjoyable Alpine Hikes

These model guidebooks, written by well known Colorado mountaineer Lou Dawson, provide the information you need to enjoy Colorado's 54 famous 14,000-foot peaks, known as the 'fourteeners.' Concise information is packed into the how-to introductions. Each peak is covered by accurate route descriptions and maps. Some routes are hikes, some are ski routes, some technical climbing routes, and some are combinations.

What's more, these books have terrific maps, photographs with arrows and lines showing the routes, and numerous peaks lists and appendices. Both books have received rave reviews, and have been award finalists at the Banff Book Festival. In short, these are the bible of Colorado fourteeners.
 
Louis W. Dawson was the first person in history to ski down all of Colorado's fourteeners. He's climbed all at least once and many several times. Among his accomplishments are four ascents up the Diamond face of Longs Peak. Dawson began climbing at an early age, and has written several other guide books for hikers in Colorado. His illustrations are excellent, and his narratives are brief enough to keep your interest and meaty enough to provide the information most are looking for.
