Sierra Crest Route Guidebook

The Sierra Crest Route Guidebook is a total one of a kind guide that takes you the entire length of the Sierra Nevada never straying more than 1 mile from the true Sierra Crest. Describes a 228 mile, totally cross country route that parallels the Sierra Crest from Haiwee Creek to the Sawtooth Ridge. Since the Crest Route is designed to be a mountaineering rather than a rock climbing route, the last requirement is that there be no individual move on the route that is technically more difficult than class 3. This guide is divided into individual sections that correspond to each of the nine geographic areas that make up the Sierra Crest Route. Each section includes historical information, a description of its segment of the Crest Route, alternative routes, other approaches and escape routes, and mountaineering opportunities. 220 pages of black and white adventure awaits you!
