アラスカ：クライミングガイド

Picked this up before a Denali trip and the topo maps saved me hours of route-finding on the lower glacier. Difficulty ratings and time estimates were spot on for the routes I did. Wish it covered a few more of the lesser-known peaks, but for the classics it's solid.

The route overlay photos alone are worth it — I could actually trace the line up the West Buttress before ever setting foot on the glacier. Difficulty ratings and time estimates for each of the 80 routes made planning way less guesswork.

I've been planning a Denali trip for two years and the difficulty and time estimates for each route are realistic, not just guesswork. The photos with the route overlays helped me actually picture the lines I've only read about.
