 Colorado's Thirteeners is a comprehensive hiking and climbing guide to Colorado's peaks between 13,800 feet and 13,999 feet in elevation. Although climbing Colorado's 14,000-foot peaks has become increasing popular in recent years for both state natives and visitors, many of the best climbs in the state are actually 13,000-foot peaks. Referring to these peaks as the "Centennial Thirteeners," authors Gerry and Jennifer Roach take you across Colorado to some of the most beautiful mountains the state has to offer. Peaks covered include Mount Meeker, which is visible from Denver, and more reclusive beauties such as Arrow, Vestal, and Jagged in the San Juan Range. Packed full of useful and user-friendly information on these and other peaks. With an even mix of hikes, scrambles, and climbs, as well as an average of almost 4 routes per peak, there is something for everyone in Colorado's Thirteeners. Written in the same accurate, clear style that has made Gerry Roach's Colorado Fourteeners so popular, this book carries a heavy emphasis on safety and the leave-no-trace environmental ethic. Colorado Thirteeners is a grand celebration of the joys that come from climbing Colorado's highest peaks. Paperback 352 pages - 6" x 9" - (4/01)
