Classic Climbs of the Cordillera Blanca is, by far, the most beautiful and
comprehensive book yet produced about Peru`s – and South America`s – most
famous mountain range.
With 182 spectacular color images, including 16 panoramas, and detailed route
descriptions, author Brad Johnson leads us to the best the Cordillera Blanca
has to offer. Also included are 12 three-dimensional maps, using a
cartographic technique never before presented in a climbing guidebook.
Johnson`s savvy travel tips and colorful anecdotes support the conventional
wisdom that nowhere else are high-altitude climbs so enjoyable, eccessible and
inexpensive.
