INTERVIEWED BY THOMAS HÜETLIN

AVAIL AB L E IN O CTO BE R
“Messner is not only the greatest high-altitude
mountaineer the world has ever known; he is
probably the best it will ever know.” ——TIME
•
Reveals the long view from an icon who, with age, has added wisdom to his
list of accomplishments
•
Messner climbing firsts: the world’s fourteen peaks taller than 8000 meters;
Everest solo; Everest without supplemental oxygen
•
Author of more than 60 books
Reinhold Messner: My Life at the Limit, the newest book by the famed mountaineer, is
a conversation between Messner and interviewer Thomas Hüetlin, an award-winning
German journalist. It reveals a more thoughtful and conversational Messner than one
finds in his previous books, with the “talk” between Messner and Hüetlin covering not only
the highlights of Messner’s climbing career, but also his treks across Tibet, the Gobi, and
Antarctica; his five-year-stint as a member of the European Parliament; his encounter
with and study of the yeti; his thoughts on traditional male/female roles; and much more.
Readers learn about Messner’s childhood, his thoughts about eating ice cream with girls
(against), politics (mostly liberal), and his technique for killing chickens (sharp scissors).
Messner is known as one of history’s greatest Himalayan mountaineers, a man who pushed
back the frontiers of the possible for a whole generation of climbers. While the interest in
My Life at the Limit is that it exposes much more of the man than his climbing career, that
career is still utterly remarkable——and Mountaineers Books is proud to present this book,
which is core to our mission, to audiences across North America.
Reinhold Messner, born in 1944 in Villnöss, South Tyrol, is the most famous mountaineer
and adventurer of our time. He has accomplished roughly one hundred first ascents,
climbed all fourteen eight-thousanders, and crossed Antarctica, Greenland, Tibet, and two
deserts on foot. After serving a term as a member of the European Parliament, he now
devotes much of his time and energy to his Messner Mountain Museum (MMM) project
and to his Messner Mountain Foundation (MMF), which aims to support mountain people
worldwide. Visit his website: reinhold-messner.de.
Interviewer Thomas Hüetlin is an award-winning correspondent for the German magazine
Der Spiegel and divides his time between Berlin and London. Translator Tim Carruthers
has climbed extensively in Europe, the United States, and South America and has translated
works by Hermann Buhl, Heinrich Harrer, Anderl Heckmair, and Reinhold Messner.

REINHOLD MESSNER INTERVIEWED
BY THOMAS H Ü ETLIN
EXCERPTED FROM REINHOLD
MESSNER: MY LIFE AT THE LIMIT
“I got into high-altitude mountaineering by chance.
In 1969 I was in college when I joined a Tyrolean
expedition to the Andes because Kurt “Gagga”
Schoisswohl, an excellent rock climber, had dropped
out. It was a good year later that I returned to
the University of Padua, after a tragic expedition
to Nanga Parbat and the amputation of several
toes and fingertips, and I found myself unable to
continue my studies. So I became a high-altitude
mountaineer. My rock climbing was hampered by
the amputations, and in particular by the pain in
the ring finger of my right hand, so from then on I
concentrated on the big mountains.”
H: In what way was that trip (1969) a career-changing event?
M: It turned out to be quite a spectacular change, but that
aspect of it wasn’t important for me at the time. I never really
thought about careers. What’s more important is the fact that
at that moment I finally gave up the idea of leading a middleclass way of life. I was totally unhappy at college. I somehow
had the feeling I was missing out on life. I had been trying to
finish my engineering course with the best intentions in the
world, but I was just forcing myself to do something I didn’t
really want to do.
And then these Innsbruck climbers called me, three days
before they were due to leave for South America. They had
been planning their expedition for a long time, but I didn’t
know much about it, only that my climbing partner Sepp
Mayerl was on it, and Peter Habeler, the brilliant Zillertal
mountain guide. I knew both of them well from the routes
we’d done together in the Alps. I was told that someone
had dropped out, so I could come along if I wanted. Tickets,
equipment, everything was sorted out, and the clothing would
fit me more or less. I wouldn’t have to pay for anything. I had
three days to get a visa.
The Andes expedition was the perfect thing for me. I came
home fit and more experienced, having climbed two big
mountains——Yerupaja Grande and Yerupaja Chico——by new
routes [see Free Spirit: A Climber’s Life] and I was hungry for
the Alps. I subsequently set about breaking some of the last
big taboos in alpine mountaineering.
At the time, 1969, the north face of the Droites was the
hardest ice climb in the Alps. It had only been climbed three
times, and never without falls. The first ascent took six days;
the fastest, three days. I had attempted the face with my
brother in 1965. We got scared and backed off it. Since then, no
one had been able to climb it.
H: Pure ice?
M: Ice lower down, mixed climbing——rock and ice——above.
Back then, we just had ice axes, no modern ice tools. I set off
early, at first light, with my axes and crampons, and a rope tied
around my waist. Nowadays the route is no big deal, but back
then it was scary. By midday I was at the top, watched by some
aspiring mountain guides from Chamonix. That got me known
in France and brought me my first advertising contract. It was
the start of my professional climbing career.
H: Who did you thank when you got to the top? Sepp Mayerl? God?
M: Neither of them. I did feel a kind of gratitude, for my good
fortune and the courage to do what I did. Then it was all over,
and I just cried with joy. But there was no desire to head out
the next day and push things another step further. It was okay
as it was. There was no God involved, so why should I thank
him? And I’d certainly pushed things much too far for my
mentor to approve.
H: But you were hooked?
M: Hooked on what? I only wanted one thing: not to die.
H: You were addicted, a climbing junkie. You’d been high, you’d
had your fix, you were happy, you were content, you were calm.
M: Yes, I was totally satisfied——calm and excited at the same time.
H: You went back down and thought, “I won’t be doing
anything like that again in a hurry.”
M: I went down and thought, “No one is going to repeat that
anytime soon, not even as a rope of two.”
H: And two days later you were off again.
M: A day later. The Freney Pillar.

THE ADVENTURE GAP
CHANGING THE FACE OF THE OUTDOORS
JAMES EDWARD MILLS
FOREWORD BY SHELTON JOHNSON
A story for our times, inspiring all Americans to embrace
their natural birthright in the great outdoors
•
Chronicles the first all-African American summit attempt on Denali, the highest point in North America
•
Part adventure story, part history, and part argument for the importance of inspiring future generations
to value nature
The nation’s wild places——from national and state parks to national forests, preserves, and wilderness areas——belong to
all Americans. But not all of us use these resources equally. Minority populations are much less likely to seek recreation,
adventure, and solace in our wilderness spaces. It’s a difference that African American author James Mills addresses in his
new book, The Adventure Gap: Changing the Face of the Outdoors.
Bridging the so-called “adventure gap” requires role models who can inspire the uninitiated to experience and enjoy wild
places. Once new visitors are there, a love affair often follows. This is important because as our country grows increasingly
multicultural, our natural legacy will need the devotion of people of all races and ethnicities to steward its care.
In 2013, the first all-African American team of climbers, sponsored by the National Outdoor Leadership School (NOLS),
challenged themselves on North America’s highest point, the dangerous and forbidding Denali, in Alaska. Mills uses
Expedition Denali and its team members’ adventures as a jumping-off point to explore how minority populations view
their place in wild environments and to share the stories of those who have already achieved significant accomplishments
in outdoor adventures——from Mathew Henson, a Black
explorer who stood with Peary at the North Pole, to Kai
Lightner, a teenage sport climber currently winning national
competitions. The goal of the expedition, and now the book,
is to inspire minority communities to look outdoors for
experiences that will enrich their lives, and to encourage them
toward greater environmental stewardship.
James Edward Mills is a journalist and media producer. He
specializes in stories about outdoor recreation, environmental
conservation, acts of charitable giving, and practices of
sustainable living. He has worked in the outdoor industry since
1989 as a guide, outfitter, independent sales representative,
and writer. Learn more about him at joytripproject.com.

•
Low-maintenance and user-friendly advice for sustainable gardening
•
Proceeds from sales benefit the Xerces Society
For many people, the most immediate impact they can have on the environment is right in their own backyard. Imagine: a
little slice of wilderness at home that reflects the natural world, where native plants welcome wildlife from bumblebees to
thrushes, and where a mini-ecosystem not only provides protection and wildlife corridors, but enhances and beautifies your
yard and neighborhood!
Many gardeners and conservationists in the Northwest want to create a healthy green space, but lack the time to read
through lengthy books that catalog hundreds of plants. Nor can they afford to hire a landscape designer to tell them which
plants to choose. With expert knowledge from professional landscape designer Eileen M. Stark, Real Gardens Grow Natives
covers these issues with clear, concise advice including:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Detailed profiles of 100 select native plants for the Pacific Northwest,
helping eliminate the guesswork for plant choice and placement
Landscape designs and details for various-sized yards, including sample

Advice for easy, ongoing maintenance using organic methods
Enhancements to prevent habitat loss and improve bird and pollinator
populations
Ways to incorporate edibles and nonnative ornamentals into your native

THE CALL OF THE ICE
CLIMBING 8000-METER PEAKS IN WINTER
SIMONE MORO
T RANS LAT ED BY M O N ICA M E N EGH E T T I | FO REWORD BY E D VI EST U RS
AVAIL AB L E IN N OV E MBE R
“It is thanks to Simone that interest in this highly
challenging type of alpinism [winter climbing] has been
renewed.” ——Reinhold Messner
•
Adventure memoir from a renowned winter climber at the top of his game
•
Moro reflects on some of his most significant climbs
•
A bestseller in Italy, this is the first English-language edition of Moro’s story
Simone Moro is a celebrated Italian alpinist who specializes in winter climbing: He holds
the record for first winter ascents of 8000-meter peaks——Shisha Pangma, Makalu, and
Gasherbrum II. A passionate climber, he is also an accomplished helicopter pilot and
founder of a helicopter rescue program in Nepal.
The Call of the Ice was written during Moro’s dramatic winter attempt on Nanga Parbat in
2012——his twelfth attempt on that mountain——during weather delays and other breaks in the
climb. Moro reflects on past climbs and partners, including the death of his longtime friend
and climbing partner, Anatoli Boukreev, on Annapurna, his mourning when Boukreev died,
and his subsequent recovery; Denis Urubko and the nature of climbing partnerships; two
attempts on Shisha Pangma; Broad Peak; Makalu; and Gasherbrum II, which he, Urubko,
and Cory Richards completed in February 2011 despite near-tragic moments when they
miraculously escaped after being swept away by an avalanche. Many of Moro’s climbs do
not result in a summit and he explains why his interest lies in the attempt itself. In addition
to these reflections, we relive in real-time his attempt on Nanga Parbat, which he and
Urubko had to abandon after 51 days and 6600 meters!
“I will go in winter. Again. Yes in winter. Just because it’s my dream. Just because
exploration never ends.” –Simone Moro
Simone Moro, born in Bergamo in 1967, has been the coach of the Italian national climbing
team, an avid sky diver and dry-tooler, and deeply involved in search-and-rescue in Nepal.
In 2001 he received the ‘Medaglia d’Oro al Valore Civile’ (an Italian award given for great
achievements or bravery). He is the author of three books. Discover more about Simone at

“Free Spirit condenses a lifetime of climbing achievement
into 288 pages of nerve-wracking reading . . .” ——Mark Twight
•
A mountaineering classic re-released in the Legends and Lore series
•
Two new chapters
In Free Spirit Reinhold Messner describes the forces and events that have shaped him as a climber as famous for his discipline
as for his innovative spirit. Messner evolved his philosophy of the single free-climbing line with its uncompromising purity
of style in the Dolomites and, as equipment and technique developed, he was in the forefront of the transference of fast
lightweight alpine methods to the great ranges. Here, he takes us from the days of his first climb (at the age of five) with his
father to his brother’s tragic death on Nanga Parbat in 1970 to his later move away from the overcrowded Alps and 8000-meter
peaks. He sought fulfillment, instead, in new challenges in lesser known parts of the world, such as crossing the expanse of
Antarctica. Free Spirit is an exciting account of the career of a mountain pioneer.

“. . . awe-inspiring reading.” —— Library Journal
In the late 1800s, when women were bound by cumbersome clothing and strict Victorian
scruples, a small band of astonishing women explorers burst forth to claim the adventurous life.
Plowing their way up the Himalaya and Karakoram or trekking for months through tropical lowlands, these five women
(three British, one American, and one French) conducted an unprecedented exploration of Tibet:
Nina Mazuchelli, the first Western woman to see Everest, organized a small expedition from Darjeeling to explore the Eastern
Himalaya. Isabella Bird Bishop, bedridden while at home, was always robust on her far-flung, international adventures and
wrote nine books chronicling her travels, which brought her to Hawaii, the Rocky Mountains, and across Asia and into Tibet.
Alexandra David-Neel at 56 trekked for eight months and more than 2,000 miles from China to Lhasa disguised as a Tibetan
beggar. Fanny Bullock Workman, an avowed suffragist, climbed to 21,000 feet in the Karakorum in 1899 and posed with a
newspaper whose banner proclaimed, ‘Votes for Women.’ Annie Taylor was a Christian missionary who traveled in Tibetan
garb to bring the word of God to the forbidden land of Tibet.
The late Luree Miller was a writer, scholar, and world traveler whose endeavors ranged from driving huge freight trucks
through the unpaved roads of the Alaskan wilderness, to co-founding the International School in Bombay. She passed away on
July 6, 1996, at the age of 70.

2014 is also the 50th anniversary of the original North Cascades photo book by The Mountaineers
that helped inspire the creation of North Cascades National Park
Washington’s North Cascades hold some of the most magnificent mountains, lowland old growth forests, and pristine
rivers on the planet. Some of these features are safely contained within national park boundaries or federally
designated wilderness areas, but few people realize how many acres remain unprotected. With a growing regional
population leading to tremendous development pressures, The North Cascades draws attention to the many reasons
the integrity of this ecosystem must remain intact. It examines the value of the area through a broad spectrum of
views——conservation, natural history, ecosystem services, sustainable rural communities, and recreation.
Pulitzer Prize-winning author William Dietrich leads us on a hike through the region, exploring the rich history and
challenges facing this rugged habitat just hours away from the metropolitan bustle of Seattle. The North Cascades
Institute’s Christian Martin profiles people and communities within the area; poet Gary Snyder shares musings from
his time spent as a fire lookout in the region; guidebook author Craig Romano provides ideas on where to visit and
what to do, from day hikes to more ambitious backcountry travel; and Richard Louv examines the importance of
preserving our local wilderness areas for generations to come. Twenty photographers including Art Wolfe, Ethan
Welty, Benj Drummond, Paul Bannick, Amy Gulick, Steven Gnam, and more, bring the North Cascades region, and the
book, to stunning visual life.
William Dietrich is the New York Times bestselling author and Pulitzer-winning journalist of fifteen books, including
award-winning Northwest environmental texts. His popular historical thrillers have been translated into thirty-one
languages. He lives in Bellingham, Washington, with a daily view of the North Cascades.

NOURISHED BY NATURE
By Richard Louv
Excerpted from the foreword to The North Cascades
For anyone who has ever lived within visual range
of the great mandibles of the Northwest, the North
Cascades and the Olympics, the distant sawtooth
ridges left their mark. My family lived for a year and
a half in Seattle. From my attic office window, when
the rain and mist lifted, I could see the Olympics.
When my wife and I walked up the hill behind our
house, and looked toward the east, we could also see
that other range of distant peaks, which somehow
seemed more mysterious, a lost world. Exploring
them, we saw and felt the massive strength of oldgrowth cedar and hemlock, saw the dark hanging
moss, entered groves and open meadows pinned by
shafts of light, emerged to the long sky and sudden
granite spires sharp enough to pierce the heart. We
were changed by the nature of this place, nurtured
by its beauty, humbled by its danger.
Over the past two decades, researchers have attempted to
calibrate the benefits to human health of urban parks and
wilderness forests, rivers, of our contact with other species,
of star-filled nights seen from a sleeping bag rolled out near
a mountain meadow. A growing body of evidence indicates
that people of every age who regularly recreate or learn
in more natural environments are physically and mentally
healthier, happier, and test better in school. Science can
never take the full measure of the value of the natural world;
in fact, scientists struggle to even define “nature” (we know
it when we see it), in part because humans are nature——the
watcher being watched. Nonetheless, a growing body of
evidence, emphasizing the impact of nature experience on
human health and cognitive abilities, does provide a fresh
argument for the protection of wilderness and the expansion
of nearby nature, but also for cities as potential engines of
biodiversity. This argument includes but goes beyond the
usual list of benefits, among them the extractive value of
natural resources, the efficient engineering of watersheds,
the necessity of clean air and drinking water, or even
traditional measures of beauty.
Ongoing studies by the Human-Environment Research
Laboratory at the University of Illinois show that direct
exposure to the outdoors——its flowers, trees, leaves, moss,
fungi, dirt; animals, large and small, winged and furred; and
natural landscape and horizon——can significantly relieve
symptoms of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder.
Scientists at the University of Sheffield in the United
Kingdom have found that the more species that live in a
park, the greater the apparent psychological benefits to
human beings. In related work, researchers at the University
of Rochester, in New York, report that exposure to the
natural environment appears to lead people to nurture close
relationships with fellow human beings, to value community,
and to be more generous with money. Kinship with the larger
community of species, along with our affiliation with natural
landscapes, can build our social capital and help us feel and
be more alive.
This research, combined with common sense and
millennia of human experience and our survival instinct, is
encouraging the emergence of a new nature movement,
one that reaches beyond the necessity of sustainability in
the forms of better mental and physical health, sharper
cognition, more creativity and productivity, and the
nourishment of spirit. As a result of this movement, naturebased schools are growing in number. Biophilic architects
(who weave natural elements into every aspect of the human
habitat), new agrarians who bring food production close to
home, landscape architects and designers who renew yards
and neighborhoods with native plants, ecopsychologists
and nature therapists, and many others are widening the
definition of green jobs. Some physicians, particularly
pediatricians, now recommend nature time to their patients.
Across the continent families are banding together to create
multiple-family nature clubs. We see a growing legion of
citizen naturalists.
The three major environmental challenges of our
time——climate change, the biodiversity collapse, and the
disconnect between children and nature——are linked. This
book encourages us to go beyond the turning of pages, to
personally, directly experience the explosions of ptarmigans
on snowfields, the wildflowers in early spring, the shadows of
rain and mist, and to carry those memories and pass them on.
My brief relationship with this region taught me how
nature, if fully valued, can help build a sense of regional and
personal identity. When my wife and son and left Seattle
and returned to San Diego, I came to see my own bioregion
anew, as a purposeful place all its own. The North Cascades
ecosystem, with its staggering beauty and wildness, can
give that same gift to many others. This rugged chunk of
the Northwest, so close to high-tech Seattle or Bellevue,
is a local, regional, national, and worldwide resource of
inestimable value, a reminder of who we are, a suggestion of
who we could be.
Richard Louv is the author of The Nature Principle and Last Child
in the Woods: Saving Our Children from Nature Deficit Disorder.
He is also chairman emeritus of the Children & Nature Network
and recipient of the Audubon Medal in 2008.

ROCK CLIMBING AND ME
BY TO P H ER D O N A H U E
WE WERE SITTING AT THE BASE OF THE
NAUTILUS, A ROCK FORMATION KNOWN FOR
PRICKLY OFF-WIDTH CRACKS IN WYOMING’S
VEDAUWOO, WHEN SYLVIA LUEBBEN ASKED ME
IF I WOULD CONSIDER WRITING A NEW EDITION
OF HER LATE HUSBAND CRAIG LUEBBEN’S ROCK
CLIMBING: MASTERING BASIC SKILLS.
A kaleidoscope of thoughts went through my mind as I
considered her offer. I was honored that she would ask
me. I was sad to think that Craig wasn’t alive to do it
himself. I was intimidated by the undertaking of trying to
update an award-winning book.
As I sat there below the Nautilus, one of Craig’s
favorite rocks, his daughter Giulia was climbing a tricky
5.9, and my kids were playing around on the rock slabs at
the base. Climbing is very much alive in our families, and
while I’ve mostly stepped away from big alpine climbing
because it takes me away from the family too much, I go
rock climbing a few times each week. Some people go to
the gym, ride a bike, or do yoga. I climb.
I pondered the accident that had killed Craig, an ice
wall collapse in the North Cascades. It was the kind of
accident that could happen while walking under the icy
eaves of a house or driving on a mountain road during
avalanche season. There is one big difference: our culture
accepts the risk of walking around the yard and driving on
wintery roads.
A couple of weeks later I told Sylvia I would like to
take on the new edition. My inspiration was partly his
family’s steadfast belief in the beauty of climbing; partly
the friendship that had taken Craig and me up the first
one-day winter ascent of the Diamond and numerous first
ascents in the Utah desert, as well as to China and Canada
on ice-climbing adventures; and partly a shared passion
for showing others how fun it is to climb safe and strong.
I’ve been asked numerous times how I could continue
climbing after losing a friend to the sport, and I’m sure
people wonder how Craig’s wife and daughter continue to
climb after losing Craig. It’s a good question——one I don’t
entirely know how to answer——but the best I can do to
explain is say that life is risky. Some people avoid nearly
all risk. Some of them have high blood pressure. Some
have strained relationships with their risk-taking children.
Some look back from old age with regrets about the things
they didn’t do when they were young.
To people like Craig and me, risk is part of life; it’s how
you manage the risk that matters. Modern rock climbing’s
equipment and the use of attentive technique make it
quite likely you could climb a hundred days a year for an
entire lifetime and never have a serious accident.
In the end, that’s why I’ve poured my heart and soul into
this new edition: Craig and I dedicated our lives to sharing
the valuable methodology of calculated risk-taking. For
much of our society, voluntary risk is a contradiction. For
us, being bold while staying safe, teaching while learning,
and taking risks while avoiding danger all make perfect
sense. Those who have tied into a rope and discovered the
beauty of climbing tend to agree.
I’ve climbed with many partners, including some who
are paraplegic, strong, weak, blind, obese, old, young,
athletic, timid, or fearless——and nearly every one of
them found climbing to be one of the most rewarding
experiences of their lives.
Perhaps my mountain guide father, Mike Donahue, put
it best: “Life is not found by avoiding the doing; life is a
mountain to be climbed.”
Guilia Luebben continues her family’s climbing legacy on Wyoming’s Vedauwoo.

SOMETHING FOR
EVERYONE ON
THE BEAR CREEK
NATIONAL
RECREATION TRAIL
BY CHR I STI AN G R E E N
Since The Best Fort Collins Hikes was published in 2008, CMC
Press has produced a dozen regional pack guides for the state
of Colorado. The newest, The Best Telluride Hikes, published last
summer, includes 20 hikes within an hour or so drive of Telluride.
One of the trails I had the pleasure of hiking and writing
about for The Best Telluride Hikes was Bear Creek National
Recreation Trail. One of 39 National Recreation Trails in Colorado
and one of more than 1,200 in the nation, Bear Creek provides
a window into the area’s rich mining history. The trail, which is
less than three miles south of Ouray, takes you to two abandoned
mining camps: Grizzly Bear and Yellow Jacket. Although the
better-known Red Mountain Mining District, between Ouray and
Silverton, had some of the most prolific and richest veins in the
world during the late 1800s, the area around Ouray was also
very bountiful during the same period. Prior to the repeal of the
Sherman Silver Purchase Act in 1893, which made the price of
silver plummet, the town had 30 active mines.
What strikes you when you make your way up Bear Creek
National Recreation Trail is the effort the miners and their
mules had to make in carrying the equipment and materials they
needed to excavate and then work the mines. The trail makes its
way up the steep slopes that rise high above Bear Creek, which
cuts through the narrow valley below. Although the trail is not
overly taxing, it hangs precariously above the valley below for
a sizeable stretch, making your pulse quicken each time you
happen to glance toward the foreboding drop-off on the right,
or southern, side of the trail. During the hike, you can’t help
thinking about how many mules and men lost their footing and
careened down the mountainside to an unfortunate fate.
When you finally reach the first camp, Grizzly Bear, the dropoff is seemingly less precipitous, as the side of the mountain
becomes more wooded. For some reason, trees give you a sense
of security, which does not present itself when the only thing
between you and the creek below is several hundred feet of
rocky slope.
Established in 1875, a year before Ouray was incorporated,
Grizzly Bear Mine was actually located on the other side of the
canyon and was connected to the mining camp by a bridge, which
is long gone. Primarily known for producing gold and silver, the
mine was also recognized for generating copious amounts of
rhodochrosite, a pink/red colored manganese carbonate mineral
that is Argentina’s national gemstone. Although the mine
closed during the first decade of the 1900s, remnants of mining
equipment and the camp itself are scattered just off the trail.
A bit farther up, where Bear Creek rises out of the valley, and
gradually begins to approach and then parallel the trail, is the
Yellow Jacket mining camp. Not to be confused with the mine
of the same name in Nevada, which was the site of the worst
mining accident in that state’s history, Yellow Jacket Mine and
camp were smaller than Grizzly Bear Mine and camp; however,
the remnants of the camp are in considerably better shape. In
fact, a cabin that served as quarters for the miners still stands
and contains several cots and other items left behind by the
miners. Yellow Jacket Mine is located on the north side of the
creek, above the remnants of a stamp mill. Unlike Grizzly Bear
Mine, Yellow Jacket Mine primarily produced lead and zinc and
reached its peak production around 1915.
The open area around the abandoned miners’ cabin and
camp is a great place to grab lunch or a snack, while enjoying
stunning views of the Sneffels Range to the west.

“HOW DANGEROUS IS
THE TERRAIN” EXCERPTED
FROM AVALANCHE ESSENTIALS
By Bruce Tremper
CONSEQUENCES
Once we have mastered the basics of steepness and understand the
significance of anchors, we can then consider consequences, which I like to
teach using a standard probability-consequence diagram (Figures 2-17 and
2-18). Probability in this case means that the closer the slope steepness is to 39 degrees, the higher the probability of triggering
an avalanche. Consequences mean that you visualize where an avalanche would take you and what would happen if you were
swept into that location.
The combination of the two determines the danger of the terrain. To determine consequences, ask yourself, “What will happen
if the slope slides?” Consequences can range from very safe to absolutely unsurvivable. Most people have an intuitive feel
for how dangerous something is if they imagine themselves sliding down through the terrain at 60 mph. If it looks like it’s
dangerous, it probably is. Figure 2-16 shows four terrain examples with photos to illustrate their potential consequences.
Avalanches by Slope Steepness
Notice that the danger of the terrain depends on
the combination of steepness (probability) and
consequences. Any time the slope steepness kicks
up above about 30 degrees (including locallyconnected terrain), I start paying lots of attention
to consequences. If I don’t like the consequences,
then I have to either seek other terrain or make
very sure the snowpack is very stable (as we will
learn in the following chapters). Terrain around
39 degrees with safe consequences (such as a
3-meter-high road cut) are what I call test slopes
because you can safely jump on them to see how
the snowpack responds. Take some time to work
through the examples on this and the following
pages to judge the danger of the slope based on
steepness, anchors, and consequences.

TAKE-HOME POINT
Good terrain skills primarily involve being a good
judge of both steepness and consequences. It’s
essential for us to constantly evaluate both as
we travel until those skills become completely
intuitive.
Figure 2-16. Here are four examples of terrain that is either un-survivable or has a low probability
of a happy ending. In a terrain trap, even small avalanches can bury us too deeply to be dug out
in time to save our life. Trees or rocks that we can hit on the way down are extremely dangerous. Slopes with rocks, cliffs, or crevasses are obviously nasty places. Large slopes not only have
larger, more violent avalanches, but rescuers take longer to access the deposition zone, especially
when coming from the top of the slope. In any of these situations, rescue has a low probability
of success.

about 30 degrees (including locally-connected
terrain), I start fa

REGIONAL INDEX
Following is an index of titles sorted by region. We’ve indexed guidebooks here to make it easy to find the ones that
are near you. Also included are some narrative adventures, because it’s always fun to read stories that took place near
where you live or in a faraway place you’re interested in. A little more than half our catalog can be organized regionally.
But don’t forget about all those sports instructionals, general lifestyle topics, and wild, sweet, and romantic tales that
aren’t in this index. You need to browse through the pages here to find those treasures or, if you know the title, you can
find them in the Title Index.
