First edition "snow sentitals of the northwest" (really cool book by hazard), the life of a western mountaineer (by CE Rusk, might have the book name slightly wrong), and a book on Sun Valley by oppenhiemer, signed (shows pictures of some cool skiing of skiers in the 50's or so). Lots of others, but I can't remember the names exactly. One book has a picture of edmund hillary glued in. I thought that was cool.

A big shout out to Dan Peterson who GAVE me the 1969 Glenn Woodsworth Squamish Chief guide for free because he thought a Canadian sprayer should own it bigdrink.gif

 

Also to Harry Majors for some free issues of NW Discovery bigdrink.gif even if they haven't entirely persuaded me that Henry Custer made as many first ascents as Harry claims he did.

 

Anyone else with rare, oop or obscure guidebooks they would like to donate to me - send PM for address grin.gif

I have all seven editions of Freedom of the Hills, including an original first print run of the First Edition.

 

I also have a hard bound version of O.H. Bonney's Guide to Wyoming Mountain Ranges, which is a hard bound collection of all of his field books for each range in Wyoming. This is a must reference book for climbing and hiking in Wyoming. very hard to find in a complete hard bound version.

Dru will of course forward any copies of Private Dancer to me.

 

While I was looking for old photos of Index I was at the house of an avid guidebook collector when he brought me into a spare room opened a safe an we spent a few hours looking at old guides and letters from some legends in American climbing describing FAs they had done or trying to sell their ideas for the coming season. It got me thinking how cheap phone calls, faxes, website and email having replaced traditional letters have in some ways destroyed history.

Orange Beckey Leavenworth guide, almost complete Off Belay, and one day I went into an outdoor shop in Mt. Vernon --right after the Mt. Challenger quad had gone out of print, and found a half dozen copies in their topo display. I bought 'em all!

Brower, David R. (Editor)

Manual of Ski Mountaineering

Berkeley University Of California 1942

 

Three years ago I purchased a copy of this edition and to my surprise, and perhaps the sellers too, the book contained a typed note with UC Berkeley Press letterhead that is signed by David Brower. The letter thanks the doctor who authored the chapter on frostbite. I'm not sure but I think the Manual was used for training at Camp Hale in Pando, CO. Pretty neat imho.
