The long-awaited revision of Select Peaks of Greater Yellowstone is finally here! It is a complete guide to the human/natural history, standard ascent routes, and ski descent routes on 107 peaks in the Greater Yellowstone region. Compared with the original 2003 edition, it is completely rewritten, revised, and expanded, with new historical information and route descriptions. It includes twenty “Deeper Dives” into engrossing subjects like the first ascents of the Grand Teton, Fremont Peak, and Teewinot Mountain; and the history of exploration in the Beartooth Mountains and North Absaroka. 640 color photographs and illustrations, many of which are brand new, illustrate with clear graphic detail the history and climbing/skiing routes on the peaks. 16 color maps, all of which are completely new, give the reader overviews of Greater Yellowstone and each of the featured ranges.
There are three versions of the second edition. The first was published in December 2023 with a flex-case cover. The majority of this inventory is being rebound as a semi-hard cover for greater durability, and will be available in the spring of 2025. During the winter of 2023-24, I revised and updated the 2023 edition even further and published the ultimate Select Peaks version in October 2024 as a stout hard cover. All three versions are 630 pages and 8×10 inches.
If you never read the first edition, a life-changing adventure awaits in the second edition as you embark into its pages. If you already own and enjoy the first edition, either version of the second edition will renew and further pique your interest in Greater Yellowstone’s peaks and history.
