Climb Every Mountain

Taking on one of the Northeast's 4,000 footers is becoming a pilgrimage for Northeast residents and its visitors. While more people than ever are hiking them, there's still a dearth of good information about each mountain and its surrounding areas, especially in winter. Climb Every Mountain fills that gap by informing adventurers-from the freshly-booted novice to the grizzled mountaineer-about the Northeast's iconic mountains that top out at over 4,000 feet. Look inside to find: - Multiple routes up each mountain- Details about the area's unique climate and geology- GPS coordinates- Full-color photography and maps throughout- Information on winter hiking
