The High Sierra: Peaks, Passes, and Trails

By R.J. Secor. The High Sierra hiking/climbing guidebook. Amazingly exhaustive. An indispensible trip planning aid.


We attempted Tresidder Peak's south arete from the south face. After reaching some difficult climbing, we bailed. Click here for a trip report.
