Book Description

Published annually since 1929, the American Alpine Journal is internationally renowned as the world's journal of record for major climbs of all kinds. Feature articles include the most compelling stories, told by the climbers themselves. In Climbs & Expeditions, we document the year's greatest first ascents, from Antarctica to Afghanistan, and from Patagonia to Pakistan. This year, the AAJ continues to expand its coverage of rock climbing and new routes in the United States. This includes a major story about the history, recent climbing, and new-route potential of little-known Cloud Peak in Wyoming's Bighorn Mountains.
