5 out of 5 stars Best Winter Guide in Washington   October 27, 2003
 4 out of 4 found this review helpful

This is clearly the definitive guide to steep winter climbing in Washington State. Martin and Krawarik have done a spectacular job researching and reporting on these routes.

This is the first book of it's kind for the area. I absolutely cannot wait for it to get cold!
