Great book....so much info...

I just picked this up from the Backcountry Outlet and I am quite honestly blown away by how much info is in this book. If you would like to pick the brain of a bunch of different mountain guides, a medical doctor, a meteorologist and a glaciologist then you will probably like this book as much I did. The book is like taking the AST1 and 2 courses and then adding in another couple of courses covering first aid, navigation, rope and climbing techniques and a ton of other information. Yes, it is written by a skier but it doesn’t focus too much on skiing so it is great for boarders as well. Just the “Mountaineering Skills” chapter is worth the $40...
