Book Synopsis Colorado 14er Disasters by : Mark Scott-Nash
Download or read book Colorado 14er Disasters written by Mark Scott-Nash. This book was released on 2009. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fourteener mania, the phenomena characterized by a seemingly obsessive drive to summit The List of all fifty-four of Colorado¿s 14,000-foot peaks, is an older tradition than many may realize. Along with intensely positive experiences in climbing is the possibility of the opposite extreme¿to become stranded, severely injured, or even killed, in disturbingly easy ways. This book explores this dark side of climbing. When an accident happens on a 14er, the victim is far from help and in an environment where rescue is difficult at best. The book is full of hair-raising stories of these disasters and resue attempts and also aids in avoiding such disasters.
