Climbing the 4000m peaks of the
Alps is one of the great and enduring challenges in mountaineering. It is a
project that requires stamina, courage, skill and humility.
In this volume, IFMGA mountain
guide, Ben Tibbetts, presents selected alpine climbs and ski mountaineering
routes on the western 4000m peaks of the Alps. This book describes over 80
classic itineraries and provides the information needed to prepare and undertake
each ascent.
Drawing on two decades of alpinism
and image-making, each mountain entry features detailed photographic topos to
assist in planning and route-finding. Having climbed most of the lines
described, Ben has included a diverse selection of action photography to
inspire and illustrate each route.
This book is replete with in-depth
route information that is aimed at both the experienced mountaineers looking
for a serious adventure in the high mountains and the aspiring alpinist setting
out on their first major climb.
