4.0

A neat book that points out the difficulties in accessing this land of ours. Brilliant descriptions of the effort it takes to hit the big ones, like Mount Logan, Fairweather, and the super tricky Nirvana. Not a lot of time spent on the little ones, like Prince Edward Island, which sort of makes sense, but another author might have used the opportunity for comedy of an expedition to the windy heights of 140 feet. Still, a pretty unique book, I believe.
