Reviews

Wonderfully comprehensive. Opens a lot of enticing territory. With Lopez's guide, it took no time at all to find many beckoning high places that can be enjoyed with or without ropes, harnesses, helmets, crampons, and ice axes.

Anyone interested in climbing, scrambling, or hiking on and around Idaho's high points will find this book invaluable. The book should also become a fine resource for schools and libraries across the state whenever a student asks 'How high is that mountains over there?'
