Red Stone Heart

Finally, a well-written book about the Uinta Mountains, Utah's loftiest range. Red Stone Heart celebrates the peakbagging

experience and shares a little lore.

The highest named peaks, The Notorious Nine, form a goal, but as with an Uinta stream, there is much meandering through forest and meadow. Arranged chronologically, readers may enjoy a section or two at a time or read it straight through. Peaks and routes are pulled from a life's rucksack, and we are carried along as we watch a young fool somehow survive to a riper age.

Lovers of high mountain adventure will be captivated by these tales and want to make more of their own.
