Adventurous stories told from a non-Western perspective by one of the most accomplished early Himalayan climbers—now in English for the fi rst time

• Ang Tharkay was the sirdar for Maurice Herzog’s Annapurna expedition in 1950—the fi rst 8000-meter peak to be climbed

• Ang Tharkay was a key member of the 1951 reconnaissance of Everest—which led to the successful 1953 ascent

Sherpas have recently been in the public eye, in part because of the 2013 Everest “brawl,” the 2014 avalanche that took the lives of thirteen climbing Sherpas, and the 2015 earthquake that devastated Nepal. These events and others have led to much public discussion about how Sherpas today are treated and viewed by their Western employers. Sherpa expands our understanding of these issues by providing historical context.

The autobiography of Ang Tharkay, who was born in 1908 and became one of the most renowned Sherpas of early Himalayan exploration, has long been a collector’s item in the original French-language edition but it has never been available in English until now.

In Sherpa, Tharkay describes his experiences traveling with Eric Shipton and H.W. Tilman and as the sirdar (head Sherpa) on Maurice Herzog’s 1950 ascent of Annapurna. Few such Sherpa accounts have been written, and fewer still from these early Himalayan expeditions. Opening with a brief account of Tharkay’s childhood and background, Sherpa then immerses readers in expeditions on Everest, Nanga Parbat, and, of course, Annapurna. Tharkay reveals some of the politics within the Sherpa support teams: petty arguments and shared struggles that went unnoticed or at least unrecorded by those who hired them. Tharkay’s admiration of his employers is leavened with his recognition of their shortcomings, but his affection for the climbers who employed him, and theirs for him, radiates throughout the story.

Sherpa includes an original foreword by tashi sherpa, founder of Sherpa Adventure Gear and the nephew of Ang Tharkay. He remembers how he and his young cousins worshipped “Agu” (Uncle) as a respected mountaineer and hero, a warm and safe presence for the family.

Ang Tharkay’s son, dawa sherpa, provides a brief afterword to the book. Little is known about Basil p. norton, who assisted Tharkay with his original text, Memoires d’un Sherpa, published in France in 1954, and now made available in English by Mountaineers Books.

An honest, uplifting memoir of overcoming addiction, and fi nding direction, through climbing

• The author is a popular journalist and blogger and the creator of Semi-rad.com

• A full journey—from confusion to clarity, remorse to redemption

• Will appeal to those searching for adventure and purpose

When Brendan Leonard fi nished substance abuse treatment at age 23, he was lost. He knew what not to do—not drink alcohol and not get arrested again. But no one had told him what it was that he could do. He quickly realized that he had to reinvent himself, to fi nd something other than alcohol and its social constructions to build his life around.

A few years later, Brendan was sober and had completed a graduate degree in journalism, but he still felt he was treading water, searching for direction. Then his brother gave him a climbing rope. And along that sixty-meter lifeline, Brendan gradually found redemption in the crags of the American West. He became a climber, someone who learned to push past fear, to tough it out during long, grueling days in the mountains; someone who supported his partners, keeping them safe in dangerous situations and volatile environments; someone with confi dence, purpose, and space to breathe.

Sixty Meters to Anywhere is the painfully honest story of a life changed by climbing, and the sometimes nervous, sometimes nerve-wracking, and often awkward fi rst years of recovery. In the mountains, Leonard ultimately fi nds a second chance.

Brendan Leonard's writing has appeared in Backpacker, Outside, Men's Journal, High Country News, Adventure Cyclist, Mountain Gazette, and dozens of other publications. He is a contributing editor at Climbing, Adventure Journal, and the podcast The Dirtbag Diaries. He divides his time between Denver and a roaming 2005 Chevy Astrovan. You can fi nd him at www.semi-rad.com.

“A well-written, compelling account . . . it provides meaningful insight from a more balanced perspective into the interplay between two initially competing teams.” –Tom Hornbein, author, Everest: The West Ridge

• The classic story of a notorious climb, now revised, updated, and expanded by the original author with new information

• Literally a race to ascend Europe’s most formidable mountain wall—Brits and Americans versus Germans

The North Face of the Eiger was long renowned as the most dangerous climb in the Swiss Alps, one that had cost the lives of numerous skilled mountaineers. In February 1966, two teams—one German, the other British/American—aimed to climb it in a straight line from bottom to top. Astonishingly, the two teams knew almost nothing about each other's attempt until both arrived at the foot of the face. The race was on.

The Anglo-American team of John Harlin, Layton Kor, and Dougal Haston intended to make a dash to the summit when conditions were right. The Germans, with an eight-man team and a mass of equipment, planned a slow, relentless ascent. Watching all was a young journalist, Peter Gillman. Now, fi fty years later, Gillman recalls the dramatic events on the North Face, and assesses their effect on those who took part. The charismatic and controversial American climber John Harlin was killed before the summit was reached, while others were permanently injured through frostbite. For British photographer Chris Bonington, who was sucked into the action, it opened a path to a career and reputation as Britain's foremost mountaineer.

“It was incredibly challenging and probably some of the hardest climbing done in the Alps to that time,” remembers Bonington. “Being involved was absolutely fantastic. There’s never been anything like it for me, before or since.”

peter Gillman has been a professional journalist for more than fi fty years, working for both the Weekend Telegraph and Sunday Times. He covered the story of the attempt on the North Face of the Eiger for the Daily Telegraph in 1966. Since then he has written numerous books, including the award-winning biography of George Mallory, The Wildest Dream, which inspired the fi lm of the same name. He lives in southeast London with his wife and co-author Leni, who is also the co-author of The Wildest Dream and other books. They live in London, England.

One day an average working “Joe” and the next a supplicant praying not to die on a snow-covered mountainside—an Everyman's adventure?

• A gripping adventure set on North America's highest mountain

• Inspirational story of a transformative experience

• A tale that any reader can connect with

Since slowly transforming himself from an overweight and overworked chain-smoker into a two-time marathon runner, Michael Fenner had climbed one glaciated peak—Mount Rainier in Washington State. Nonetheless, he embarks on a journey to the wilds of Alaska and the unknowns of North America’s highest and most dangerous peak for what he hopes will be the adventure of a lifetime: a traverse of Mount McKinley (Denali), ascending up the West Buttress route to the summit, and then down the more ominous and treacherous Karstens Ridge and Muldrow Glacier.

In Crossing Denali, Michael describes in gripping detail how he and fi ve other mountaineers, with their three guides, lug hundreds of pounds of gear from camp to camp, living an exhausting if simple life of climbing, digging, eating, sleeping. The well-traveled route along the West Buttress lulls him and his fellow teammates into a false sense of confi dence. But once they cross Denali Pass and begin the descent down the northern side of the mountain, Denali

unleashes its famed worst. The harrowing journey that follows nearly breaks Michael's spirit and body, and forever changes him.

Crossing Denali is a novice mountaineer’s tale that will inspire dreamers and other aspiring mountaineers to seek adventure and transform their lives.

Michael Fenner was so affected by his life-altering climb of McKinley that he began a new long and arduous adventure to put down on paper the details of his experiences. The result, after many years and many drafts, is Crossing Denali. He and his wife, Angie, and their four children live in Jacksonville, Illinois, where he practices in a busy general surgery group.

“Honeybees Make Honey; Mason Bees Make Food.”

• Author Dave Hunter is at the leading edge of bee and pollinator issues

• Mason bees are part of the solution to honeybees’ decline

• No other bee book addresses the topic with such depth and interest

• Includes useful information about leafcutter bees too!

The national media regularly features dire stories on honeybee colony collapse and its danger to our food supply. But there's another, unsung bee that has the potential to save the planet—the mason bee.

Mason Bee Revolution explains how docile, hard-working, solitary mason bees (and their compatriots, the leafcutter bees) are even more productive pollinators than honeybees, and keeping them can be a fun, easy, backyard hobby for gardeners, conservationists, foodies, and families everywhere.

Why these bees? Bee pollination is critical for about 80 percent of US agricultural crops, increasing crop value by an estimated $15 billion annually. Since 2006, nearly a third of all honeybee hives have been lost each year, due to parasites, pesticides, habitat loss, climate change, and a newer malady called Colony Collapse Disorder. While scientists search for answers to save the honeybee, Dave Hunter and his company, Crown Bees, are leading the effort to increase the population of other highly effi cient pollinators: One mason bee can produce twelve pounds of cherries, via pollination, where it would take sixty honey bees to achieve the same.

Mason Bee Revolution is an easy-to-follow guide to keeping both mason and leafcutter bees. It tells you how to set up, care for, and harvest your own bees and what types of plants and habitat encourage mason and leafcutter bees, as well as provides general information on other common pollinators and bee-related facts, projects, and personalities.

dave Hunter is founder and past president of the Orchard Bee Association and serves on an advisory panel to the US Department of Agriculture’s National Institute for Food and Agriculture. He and his wife, Barb, live in Woodinville, Washington. Visit him at www.crownbees.com.

Editor and writer Jill Lightner was the founding editor of the award-winning bimonthly magazine Edible Seattle. She is also the author of Edible Seattle: The Cookbook and editor of the Edible Communities recipe app. In addition, she has written extensively as a food critic and journalist. Jill lives in Seattle.

WHY Mason Bees?

FROM "turninG tHe tide," MASON BEE REVOLUTION

Like polycultural farming, poly-pollination is begun through a change in our thinking. It’s not that one pollinator or plant is the sole key to a successful harvest; it’s that pollinators function best when several kinds are working together throughout the course of a year. And, if one species of bee is struggling, why not explore the possibilities offered by other pollinators?

Just as the smart cherry farmer’s different varieties ripen at different times and offer different levels of resistance to diseases, different species of bee have their own season when they’re most active, require somewhat different conditions to thrive, and are designed to more easily stave off different kinds of threats. Beyond just the realm of bees, every member of the world of pollinators is active in its own way, seeking different times of day, weather conditions, and kinds of plants for their own uniquely evolved reasons: they might all be in search of nectar and pollen, but some are specialists while others prefer to generalize. Honeybees are moderately effective pollinators with a remarkable fl ying range; they remain active for a number of months throughout the year as they pack their hives with nectar and pollen. The mason bee has a shorter lifespan, and sticks much closer to its home, but is a truly exceptional springtime pollinator. Like the honeybee, it can be moved in its home to another location, making it a good choice for large-scale agriculture. Its more gentle nature and moderate needs, however, make it a natural starting point for home gardeners interested in adding pollinators to their yards.

The mason bee, since it moves in only a 300-foot circle, is tremendously affected by its immediate environment. Are there enough fl owers for it to fi nd good pollen? Is there adequate mud? Is there protection from harmful pests? Do what’s necessary to help the bees survive to pollinate the fl owers and vegetable blossoms in this tight little radius this year, and you’ll end up with small bees to share with friends and neighbors the following spring.

This simple act of caring begins a journey toward greater collaboration, with more food on the table and positive changes that go far beyond the garden. Raising mason bees in a backyard, sharing your bees with others, and even reaching out to get mason bees on nearby farms creates a reverse “table to farm” movement. One garden at a time, and one bee at a time, it’s actively thinking about not just our daily bread but far beyond—to our children’s children’s food supply.

Oregon Coast

1% for parks

208 the south coast

Far from inland population centers, Ore-

gon’s south coast is remote, the beaches

often unpeopled, the towns small, the views

big. A prime example is Cape Arago, where

the Shoreline Trail links three stunning state

parks. The beach stretches for miles north

and south of the Coquille River at Bandon,

and the farther you get from Bandon, the

fewer people you’re likely to see. A network

of trails at Blacklock Point—an undeveloped

state park—includes a scenic shoreline

route linking Floras Lake with the beach

north of Cape Blanco, the westernmost point

in Oregon. Two big headlands—Humbug

Mountain and Cape Sebastian—offer two

very different hiking experiences. Short

trails in Sam Boardman State Scenic Corridor

lead to a gorgeous rocky coastline you can’t

see from the car and US Highway 101; string

a few of these trails together, as hikes in this

section do, for a satisfying day hike.

Coos Bay and Cape AragoThe southern terminus of the Oregon

Dunes is at fishhook-shaped Coos Bay, the

second-largest estuary in Oregon, smaller

only than the Columbia River’s mouth. Much

of the salt marsh that used to surround the

bay has been altered to serve agricultural

or industrial interests, but the bay’s many

sloughs and inlets still provide important

habitat for a variety of plants, fish, birds, and

mammals. Get a taste of the slough’s native

vegetation and seasonal rhythms at Milli-

coma Marsh, in the city of Coos Bay. Even

better, detour to South Slough National Estu-

arine Research Reserve south of Charleston,

where trails and boardwalks lead down and

out into a stunningly beautiful salt marsh

and an old homestead. Take a turn through

the small interpretive center here too, if it’s

open when you visit.

Charleston, located just inside the mouth

of Coos Bay and a short drive off US 101, is

also the gateway to one of the most dramatic

stretches of the Oregon coast. Cape Arago

Highway leads past off-the-beaten-path

Bastendorff Beach, a lighthouse-topped

island followed by an idyllic crescent-shaped

bay, formal public gardens, broad tide pools,

fabulous wildlife-watching, and a sculpture

garden of offshore rocks, all strung together

by a 3.5-mile section of the Oregon Coast

Trail and upland trails creating loop options

of varying length. Short trails lead down to

coves at the end of the cape; bring binoc-

ulars to appreciate the variety of seabirds

and marine mammals, including elephant

seals—rare in Oregon—congregating on

and around Shell Island and Simpson Reef in

spring and early summer.

From Cape Arago the beach stretches

south to the Coquille River: it is very remote

at the north end just below the cape and not

remote at all as it approaches Bullards Beach

State Park and the town of Bandon.

On the trailFrom the parking lot at the south viewpoint, follow the asphalt path west as it drops and then ascends past a bank of fragrant cean-othus, heads into a grove of trees, and ends at a viewpoint at the tip of the cape. The trail then heads south, switchbacking down through a Sitka spruce forest. Nearing the end, the trail rises slightly and crosses two small creeks. At about 1.5 miles it emerges from the forest onto a rock bench above the bedrock at the base of the cape, curving west with the contour of the mountain and angling down the hillside to the beach. (Be careful to avoid poison oak at trailside here.)

Explore the beach if you wish, and return as you came. Alternately, walk south on the beach 1.1 miles to the Myers Creek Wayside (north of milepost 337) if you’ve arranged a shuttle car for a one-way hike.

A roundtrip hike in reverse (from Myers Creek Wayside to the top of the cape and back) totals 5.4 miles. The trail is a little tricky to spot from the beach the first time. Approaching from the south via the beach, cross several small creeks, pass a big strati-fied rock face, cross another little creek, and walk onto the boulders where the beach runs out. Look up to catch a remnant of trail; it may require a bit of a scramble to get up to it.

(Pistol River Viewpoint, south of the Pistol River Bridge, doesn’t provide access to the beach at this writing due to the large lagoon that forms at the mouth of the Pistol River.)

From the base of Cape Sebastian to the mouth of the Pistol River, US

Highway 101 is never far from the beach, but this far south, with so little coastal development, you never feel oppressed by the highway’s presence, and the beach itself is never crowded. The lagoons that form at the mouth of the river, shifting seasonally and year to year, are magnets for passing waterfowl. At the south end of the beach, Crook Point is a wonderful wildlife-watching spot. Bring binoculars to get close to whatever happens to wing by or swim in. Notes: OCT link

On the beachFrom Myers Creek Wayside, it’s a 1.1-mile walk north to the end of the beach at Hunt-er’s Cove or, southbound, 2.2 miles to the mouth of the Pistol River (in 2014; the river’s mouth can shift radically one winter to the next). You should be able to wade the Pistol River in summer, certainly at low tide; if not, climb up and around the river via dunes and the highway bridge. From the Pistol River it’s another 1.3 miles south to the end of the beach at Crook Point.

FOcus: sailing in On a West Windspring storms sometimes blow great numbers of Velella velella onto the beach, enough that it’s hard to find a path to the waterline. these violet blue floating crea-tures, just an inch or two long, live in vast congregations on the sea’s surface. they have no means to propel themselves; they move at the whim of wind and current. velella’s “sail” is what catches the wind, and it’s all that’s left—soft and rubbery, then dry as parchment after several days on the beach—after the rest of the animal has rotted away. hanging from the fringes of the float are tentacles that contain stinging cells; you might not feel the sting on your fingers, but take care to not touch your eyes next, and keep your dog at a distance.

Waterproof, pocket-sized quick reference for performing a crevasse rescue

• Step-by-step instructions for crevasse rescue in a convenient, portable package

• Durable enough to fi t in your pack and survive extreme weather

• Valuable tips and reminders for safe travel on glaciers in a user-friendly format

Crevasse rescue is one of the most technically complex skills a mountaineer will ever need to learn; it is also one of the most essential. While climbers can go for years without having to set up a Z-pulley system, they need to be ready for that one crucial moment when it is essential.

The Crevasse Rescue Pocket Guide allows glacier climbing parties to have a rugged, packable resource to reference in the fi eld. Climbers can pull it out on their way to the climb, at a pre-glacier break on the route, or for a few minutes at night in the tent—it's a convenient, step-by-step refresher to look at on trips where this knowledge may be needed.

Similar to Mountaineers Books' successful Avalanche Pocket Guide, the new Crevasse Rescue Pocket Guide is a full-color, 16-panel laminated and folded card for in-the-fi eld reference. Alpine climbers will keep the guide in their crevasse rescue kit when traveling on glaciers. Not a substitute for training and practice, it's a handy, lightweight reminder and reference tool that helps ropemates and rescuers implement rescue techniques effi ciently and correctly in a highly stressful situation.

More than 3000 miles of trail on foot and mountain bike, with llamas and toddlers . . . What could go wrong?

“Not only are readers given the opportunity to experience the sheer beauty and at times frightening dangers of the trail, but they also watch two children grow and learn to call the trail their home. Well written, captivating, and incredibly educational, this adventure is a lesson in the simplicity of life and the beauty of accomplishment.” —Publishers Weekly

"This is both an epic adventure of the fi rst order and the heartwarming story of the family who accomplished it." —San Francisco Chronicle

Now available for the fi rst time in paperback and ebook, Scraping Heaven is the story of a family’s adventurous trek over the rooftop of North America—a warm and heartfelt account with a powerful message for parents, long-distance hikers, and outdoor adventurers alike.

The Continental Divide Trail, a rugged 3100-mile footpath running along the crest of the Rocky Mountains from Canada to Mexico, is infamous for its tricky mountain passes and snowy traverses. In 1993, Cindy Ross, her husband, and their two toddlers set out together on the Trail. Using llamas as kid-carriers and packers, they successfully hiked the entire route over the next fi ve summers, covering the last 700 miles on tandem mountain bikes in 1998.

A keenly observant storyteller, Ross deftly interweaves evocative descriptions of the landscape with dramatic accounts of sudden snowstorms, gale-force winds strong enough to lift a child, and heart-pounding wildlife encounters. Through it all, her intimate refl ections on marriage, family, and children provide depth and interest far beyond the high Rocky Mountain peaks. Scraping Heaven features a new afterword by the author.

Cindy ross is the author of six books including her fi rst, A Woman’s Journey on the Appalachian Trail, which has been in print for nearly thirty-fi ve years and has become a hiking classic. Ross’s work, most often on the rewards of recreation, the natural world, and travel, has appeared in dozens of publications, including the Los Angeles Times, Boston Globe, Washington Post, and many others. She currently writes for the website and blog of Richard Louv’s organization, the Children & Nature Network.

The mine is stopped for now—but for how long?

• A story of David versus Goliath: an historic and sustainable core fi shery versus boom-and-bust corporate mineral extractors

• Combines photos, interviews, science, and prose to reveal the cultural, natural, Native, and historical richness of Bristol Bay

• Nearly half of America’s wild-seafood catch—valued at $2.5 billion annually—comes from Bristol Bay.

Bristol Bay is a region in southwestern Alaska renowned as the most signifi cant source of wild sockeye salmon in the world, as well as of other species of Pacifi c salmon and herring. Unfortunately, it also contains other valuable resources: gold, copper, and molybdenum (a metal used to make steel alloys), and the extraction of these minerals would likely destroy the world-class commercial and recreational fi sheries essential not only to the people who call this region home, but far beyond as well. Mining development threatens Native tribes and the salmon-based subsistence way of life that has sustained them for 4000 years. In addition to millions of migrating salmon, Bristol Bay provides important habitat for many other species including millions of seabirds, sea otters, seals, walruses, Beluga and Orca whales, and the endangered North Pacifi c Right whales.

Conservation in competition with development is a well-worn theme in Alaska, and nowhere is this more apparent than in the battle over Bristol Bay—exemplifi ed by the proposed Pebble Mine. But Bristol Bay's mineral wealth is not the fabled nuggets of Alaskan lore; rather, it is extracted as fi ne particles through an industrial process that includes pulverizing ore and using cyanide and other chemicals to separate the valuable metals. Mountains of rocky spoils would be created, while highly toxic wastewater would require large containment ponds. Miles of streams would be excavated or buried under waste rock.

The Pebble project is located at the headwaters of the two largest tributaries of the Bristol Bay watershed—a watershed whose ecological resources generate $500 million in economic benefi ts annually, and provides more than 14,000 full and part-time jobs.

Where Water Is Gold illustrates just what is at stake through Carl Johnson’s stunning photography and informative and lyrical essays by Bill Sherwonit, Nick Jans, Steve Kahn and Anne Coray, Dave Atcheson, and Erin McKittrick.

TOP: Producing almost fifty percent of the world’s sockeye salmon supply, 12,000 jobs and $1.5 billion in annual revenue, Bristol Bay is a robust, sustainable, and diverse region for commercial fishing. The Bristol Bay commercial fishery has been supporting families since the late 1800s, with several families having four and five generations of active fishermen. MIDDLE, LEFT: The Bristol Bay region hosts the largest state park in the United States (Wood-Tikchik State Park), two national parks (Lake Clark National Park & Preserve and Katmai National Park & Preserve), and three national wildlife refuges (Togiak NWR, Becharof NWR and Alaska Peninsula NWR). Together, these six preserves alone provide 19.1 million acres of access to rivers, streams, lakes, bays, mountains and tundra to hike, paddle, and float. BOTTOM: The region also boasts one of the highest con-centrations of brown bears in the world in Katmai National Park & Preserve, shown here at Brooks Falls.

Food Grown Right, In Your Backyard88

Food Grown Right, In Your Backyard150

Brassicas: broccoli, cabbage, cauliflower, collards, kale

Cucurbits: cucumbers, pumpkins, summer squash, winter squash

Nightshades: eggplant, peppers, potatoes, tomatoes

Your other crops can be worked around these rotating crops to fill in the available spaces.

LAYING OUT YOUR GARDENNow it’s time to apply all these concepts to your own vegetable garden. Here’s how we sug-gest you divide your space and choose where to place each crop:1. Make a list of the crops you would like to

grow. You can come up with these off the top of your head or use this book’s crop profiles section as a reference.

2. use the Crop Size, Spacing, and Scheduling chart in the Appendices to categorize your chosen crops as long-, half-, and short- season crops, and as tall, medium-sized, or short crops.

3. Draw a simple map of your garden space.4. Label your map with your chosen crops. When

possible, keep tall and trellised crops on the far north, east, or west sides of the garden. Also when possible, group plants with other crops in the same plant family. Note which crops will come out during the course of the season, and decide which short- or half season crops to replace them with.

5. When you’re actually planting the garden, be sure to follow the plant spacing recom-mendations very closely. Overcrowding your vegetables will result in more problems and less harvest!

As the founders of the nationally recognized seattle urban farm Company, Colin McCrate and Brad halm have heard it all:

“My backyard is too small; how can I make space for a garden?”

“Do I really need to buy fertilizer?”

“What on earth is that creature crawling on the tomatoes?”

“The zucchini are now on the sidewalk—who has time to harvest all this?”

Food Grown Right, In Your Backyard is McCrate and halm’s primer for these questions and more. It offers easy, inspiring instruction for first-time gardeners who want to grow their own food while saving money and time and eating more healthfully.

In response to the rising interest in homegrown foods, the seattle urban farm Co. builds backyard vegetable gardens for everyone from busy families to groups of renters to trendy restaurants. Along the way, McCrate and halm teach beginning growers the techniques of organic food production and how to build a garden from the ground up. In simple, accessible terms, they explain key topics, including:

• Garden size and design for any setting

• Preparing soil, including fertilizer and compost

• Crop planning techniques

• Creating container gardens

• Watering and irrigation

• Plant Life 101—what are vegetables, anyway,

and what should you eat?

• Garden tools and time-saving rules

• Essential skills for planting, care, and harvest

• Crop Profiles—the very best vegetables, herbs,

edible flowers, and berries for your city farm

Quick-reference tables, accounts of other beginning gardeners, informative full-color photographs, and step-by-step instructions all come together in this unique, friendly guide that proves, once and for all, that anyone can develop a “green thumb”!

Colin McCrate and Brad Halm started the seattle urban farm Co. to answer one simple question: “does anybody need help setting up a vegetable garden?” turns out, quite a few did. In addition to building gardens and providing private gardening instruction, they teach community classes and lead urban farming workshops. Visit them at www.seattleurbanfarmco.com.

First, Mountaineers Books staff includes lots of cyclists, and so we’re always happy to be telling others about cool bike things. Second, these maps aren’t only cool—you basically have to have them if you’re doing any signifi cant touring, because in many cases they are the only source for information on these long-distance routes. and fi nally, the 47,000-member adventure Cycling association is a nonprofi t publisher like us, committed to producing best-in-class information on a muscle-powered sport.

There is nothing more fun than riding a bike on a sunny day—the corollary of which is that once you get addicted to pedaling you’ll be riding regardless of the weather. Start—or foster—your two-wheeled addiction with these helpful, authoritative maps from the adventure Cycling association.

Each: $15.75, sizes are folded, two sided, water

resistent, color, paperbound.

“People told me that once I was married and had kids, my adventures would be over . . . We’re told it’s

good to get comfortable, settle down, buy a bigger house and a better car, and start stockpiling the 401(k).

But that’s not necessarily right for everyone. It wasn’t right for me.”

At 32, artist and climber Jeremy Collins found himself “somewhere between college and mortgage,”

and recognized within a profound need for transformation. Inspired in part by his intrepid friend

Jonny Copp, who had died tragically in an avalanche, Jeremy resolved to travel in the four cardinal

directions—north, south, east, and west—to challenge himself on first ascents, and to explore a balance

between the pursuit of wilderness adventure and the necessity of home.

Drawn: The Art of Ascent is a rich, textured, and soulful visual exploration of summits lost and achieved.

Although climbing is Jeremy’s catalyst, the more fully realized approach to life he discovers will

resonate with anyone who has ever looked out an office window and asked, “What else is there?”

GRAPHIC ART / MEMOIR / CLIMBING

$24.95 U.S.

The illustrative maps and art of Jeremy Collins are frequently featured in Rock

and Ice and Alpinist magazines, in numerous books, on a variety of outdoor-

adventure products, and on the cover of National Geographic. For this

project, his climbing partners included Tommy Caldwell, Mark Jenkins, Jeff

Achey, James Q Martin, Pat Goodman, José Miranda, Mikey Schaefer, Dana

Drummond, Corey Rich, and Hayden Kennedy. Visit Jeremy—and see a film

everything was wet: my tent, my rainfl y, the bag of food i’d dutifully hung in a tree. The storm overnight had been violent, and now, sitting on a wet rock in the fog, i realized how unprepared i was. i had no plan for my sopping gear. if i stuffed it into my pack, the one thing that was still dry— my sleeping bag—would get wet. and that would make the next night dangerously cold.

This was my second morning on The Colorado Trail. The plan was to hike the entire 486 miles from Denver to Durango.

i knew i was in over my head. i’d only started backpacking the year before; my longest trip had been two nights; and i’d never gone solo. But i craved an escape from the daily grind of work and life. Since my mother died in 2009, i’d felt untethered and hollow. i had plenty of friends, a caring signifi cant other, and a well-respected job at Wyoming’s nPr station. But my life was passionless. i knew i needed to get away.

So i quit my job, and started hiking.it was a rough start.after that fi rst storm, as i wiped the mud off my soaking tent

with a wad of toilet paper, a sense of ineptitude washed over me. How could i possibly complete the trail, if i couldn’t handle something as innocuous as a wet tent?

The storm was just the fi rst of my troubles. on day two, i entered a massive plot of land that had been decimated by a wildfi re.

The sun beat down mercilessly as i slogged through hills upon hills of charred stumps. Sweat dripped into my eyes, my shoulders went numb, and plump red blisters mushroomed on my toes. every muscle ached.

and yet on i trudged; i couldn’t give up this soon.Finally, after about a week, i crested the Continental Divide, at a place called georgia Pass. i took off my pack and sat

among the vibrant yellow wildfl owers that blanketed the saddle. Snow-capped peaks fi lled the horizon; the sky was a brilliant blue; and i breathed in the clear mountain air, feeling a surge of exhilaration. Maybe i could fi nish this trail, after all.

i’d like to say that after that, the hike became easy. But it didn’t. i walked through clouds of ravenous mosquitoes, plodded through sweltering heat, and slogged through days of nonstop rain.My sleeping pad sprung a leak, and my water fi lter broke.

Yet something strange started to happen. The longer i was on the trail, the happier i grew.The independence of hiking alone was delightful: i woke up when i wanted to, took breaks when my blisters demanded,

walked at my own pace, and camped when i was tired. in the mornings, i savored the silence as i sipped my coffee, watching the red glow of dawn inch its way over the horizon. and as i walked along alpine ridges, gazing at emerald valleys and elegant peaks, i marveled at having these enchanting places to myself.

The trail continued to throw me curveballs, but the disasters that had haunted my imagination before the hike didn’t happen. i did not get eaten by bears. i didn’t get giardia. i wasn’t kidnapped when i hitchhiked into towns to resupply.

and so, gradually, my perspective changed. instead of agonizing over all the things that could go wrong, i became increasingly grateful about simple things that went right. and i grew confi dent that i could handle whatever the trail threw at me. Finally, i was living in the moment rather than worrying about what was ahead.

a little over fi ve weeks after i’d set out from Denver, i fi nished the hike. a quiet sense of accomplishment tingled through my limbs. The trail had been brutal at times, but it had also enveloped me in its vast beauty, erased my anxiety over my future, and fi lled me up inside.

For the fi rst time in a long time, i felt like i was truly living.

M o u n T a i n e e r S B o o K S phone: 800 .553.44535 2

i had about 10 minutes before my fl ight, enough time to grab one more cup of coffee. i had rushed to fi nish one more assignment on the fl oor of the Salt lake City airport before my fl ight to o’Hare and somewhat tight connection to Zurich. Just as i was about to order a coffee, i heard a man behind me ask, “are you leonard?”

i turned, and a man and his wife stood looking at me, an open passport in his hands. He looked at it, then looked at me, then back at the passport.

“Yes,” i said, my mouth dropping. “Wow.” i reached out and he handed me the passport, my passport, that i had left on the fl oor a few hundred yards from the coffee stand. i had hurriedly unplugged my computer from its last north american electrical outlet, packed up my stuff and left my passport, boarding pass inside, sitting next to a potted plant in the busy terminal.

i said Thank You, then Thank You again, and the guy and his wife smiled and walked on their way. i said Thank You 10 more times in my head, stuffed my passport and boarding pass back in my backpack, and ordered a coffee, sighing and shaking my head in disbelief that i left my goddamn passport on the fl oor of an airport minutes before the start of a three-week work trip.

and that guy saw it, picked it up, and walked around the terminal for a couple minutes trying to fi nd a guy who looked like the guy in the photo, and handed it to me, no questions asked, no expectation of any reward, just doing the right thing on his way to the baggage claim. i did my best to communicate my gratitude, but how do you thank someone for saving you from thousands of dollars in airline tickets, days of stress, missed schedules, maybe identity theft? i should have given him a bear hug right there at the coffee stand.

My friend Mick told me he had a friend who said, “i used to think i was gonna change the world. now i just let people onto the freeway.” i always loved that line, because i think it says something about what people can do to make other people’s lives better—all those little things that don’t make the evening news.

Most days, i think that most people aren’t going to save the world in the way we usually think of that phrase, save the world: feed starving children, rescue families from burning homes, start a nonprofi t that helps people fi nd a new start.

But then i think about people like that guy who handed me back my passport, or you, when you fi nd someone’s wallet at a restaurant and give it to the manager, or pick up a dropped pacifi er for a someone who’s holding a baby and trying to juggle three other things, or let someone in front of you in line at the grocery store when they have two items to buy and you have 25, i think Yeah, maybe everyone’s going to save the world.

100 Years of Listening to Nature

THE LIVING BIrd

100 Years of Listening to Birds“All the birds among us offer a window into a different kind of knowing—one that is natural, but in modern times is forgotten and unpracticed. If we pay attention, the birds in our lives become mediators between the obvious and the hidden, between the normal way of seeing and a way of seeing that is less common but more beautiful, nourishing, and grounding.”

—from The Living Bird

Vyn

tHe LiVing Bird

The Cornell Lab of Ornithology, in Ithaca, new york, is a world leader in the study, appreciation, and conservation of birds. Their hallmarks are scientific excellence and technological innovation to advance the understanding of nature and to engage people of all ages in learning about birds and protecting the planet. Founded in 1915, the Cornell Lab is a nonprofit organization whose vibrant community includes supporters, citizen-science participants, and millions of bird enthusiasts from all walks of life who connect with them online at www.allaboutbirds.org. Learn more at www.birds.cornell.edu.

Gerrit Vyn is a Seattle-based photographer whose images are used by many conservation organizations and appear regularly in books and magazines, including National Geographic, Audubon, and the New York Times. He was the primary photographer for two “State of the Birds” reports delivered to Congress by a coalition of leading environmental organizations. His audio and video work have been featured on PBS’s Nature, nPR’s Morning Edition, and CBS’s Sunday Morning.

Beacons of our PLanetFor 100 years, the Cornell Lab of Ornithology has researched the lives of birds, educating the public and striving for protection of species and habitat. But the Lab does much more than study—it celebrates birds through song and image, and connects us to them.

An intimate yet stunning exploration of north American species, The Living Bird explores our joyful, complex relationship with birds. Wildlife and conser-vation photographer Gerrit Vyn, along with leading naturalists and bird enthusiasts, takes readers on a visual and experiential journey, revealing the essence of the Lab’s work.

Barbara Kingsolver remembers her youth as a reluctant birder, while years later she exalts in a special birding trip with her father. Scott Weidensaul delves into the secret lives of birds: How do flocks of birds migrate thousands of miles? What determines who mates with whom? What purpose do all those pretty feathers and glorious melodies serve? Lyanda Lynn Haupt finds inspiration in our everyday birds as they connect us to the natural world, and she describes how citizen science enriches our under-standing of everything around us.

Director of the Cornell Lab of Ornithology John W. Fitzpatrick considers the status of birds today: while too many species have been driven to extinc-tion, others have made remarkable recoveries thanks to human action. Jared Diamond underscores that it is in our hands to protect the living birds around us.

Throughout, Vyn’s remarkable photographs bring the exhilaration of migratory Whooping Cranes, the fragility of the endangered Spoon-Billed Sandpiper, and the wide-eyed beauty of Great Horned Owls alive on the page. From enjoying backyard Black-capped Chickadees and yellow Warblers to spotting a Pile-ated Woodpecker to admiring the powerful soar of a Gyrfalcon, watching and listening to birds leads us into a greater understanding of their environment—and of ours.

Following is an index of titles sorted by region. We’ve indexed guidebooks here to make it easy to find the ones that are near you. also included are some narrative adventures, because it’s always fun to read stories that took place near where you live or in a faraway place you’re interested in. a little more than half our catalog can be organized regionally. But don’t forget about all those sports instructionals, general lifestyle topics, and wild, sweet, and romantic tales that aren’t in this index. You need to browse through the pages here to find those treasures or, if you know the title, you can find them in the Title index.
