Colorado Snow Climbs is a veritable feast of snow climbs in the High Country.
The Colorado mountains offer of some the finest snow and alpine ice climbing
in the U.S.; from winter ridge routes, to couloir and gully climbs in the
spring and summer, to the alpine ice routes which form each autumn.
The climbs are organized first by season and then by technical difficulty and
commitment. The climbs range from routes requiring little more than an ice axe
and the requisite skills to technical climbs involving sections of serious ice
and mixed climbing.
By including ‹classics› as well as a sampling of lesser-known high quality
routes, plus detailed maps and route descriptions, Cooper continues the
tradition started in his best-selling Colorado Scrambles. GPS data for
critical points on the approach and climb, plus four-color photographs, whet
the appetite and provide additional information about the routes.
