 Majestic Mount Shasta seems to have a memorable impact on everyone who comes
within sight of the massive, snowcapped volcano. The Mountain inspires thoughts
of walking through luscious meadows, hiking on alpine trails, or climbing the
summit to experience breathtaking views.
Climbing Mt. Shasta was written and designed specifically for those of you
who are motivated to climb Mt. Shasta for the first time. It contains detailed
information for novice climbers and for experienced mountaineers who dream of
reaching the summit using the Avalanche Gulch route. For you nonclimbers, get
comfortable, open this book, and let me take you on a step-by-step journey to
the Mountain's summit and back again.
"It is one thing to
receive the many gifts the mountain can give, as my friend Steve
has. An even greater thing is to share and teach that knowledge
to others. Keep up the good work.
"Lou
Whittaker, Expedition Leader & Rainier Mountain Guide, Author "Memoirs of A
Mountain Guide"
"Lewis'
book is an excellent resource and contains much needed
information that should prevent the type of accidents and
injuries that we deal with on the mountain. A better prepared
climber saves time, money, and unnecessary dangerous exposure to
SAR team members. I highly recommend reading the book! "
Sgt. Dave Nicholson, Siskiyou Co. Sheriffs Dept. Search and
Rescue Coordinator
