Sobre este artículo
Palisades Press. Softcover. Very Good. 0x5x8. Signed by Author. Inscribed "To Dave & Christy Good Climbing! Stephen F. Porcella" and "For Dave & Christy! Get a Job! Cameron Burns". Copies signed by both authors rarely offered. Comprehensive California climbing guidebook to the fourteeners -- from walk-ups to screamers * Includes general history of the mountains and historical anecdotes about the routes California's 14,000-foot peaks are altogether different from those in Colorado or Washington. In most cases they are steep, sheer-walled spires found in remote, pristine wilderness areas. Porcella and Burns have spent years climbing many of the listed routes and have extensively researched all others to create the only route guide that includes several options for each fourteener. Each mountain description includes access, history, and details such as difficulty ratings and gear recommendations. Specific route descriptions, ranging from the easiest to highly technical, are illustrated with photos with route overlays. An informative introduction includes permit information, search and rescue resources, and a discussion of wilderness ethics. Cameron M. "Cam" Burns (b. 1965â) is an Australian-American author and climber. Burns grew up in Sydney, Australia, where he was exposed to surfing and climbing at a young age. In 1978, his family moved to upstate New York where he took up skiing, then subsequently developed a lasting interest in climbing. In 1991, he and fellow climber Stephen F. Porcella published the first guide to California's fourteeners. In 1996, he wrote the first guidebook to Colorado ice climbing.
