Completely revised and updated throughout, the new edition of this successful guide is for everyone who ventures into the wilderness. Conservation is the theme: of the individual, of equipment, and of the environment. Clothing, equipment, and rations are thoroughly discussed, along with the necessity for good expedition behavior. There are chapters on trail techniques, camping for conservation, and basic climbing, and more specialized information on summer snow techniques and winter mountaineering. Reading of topographical maps is included. Detailed illustrations supplement technical material such as knots and use of climbing ropes; and there is valuable appendix material, including checklists of equipment and clothing and recipes.

Petzoldt's Teton Trails: A hiking guide to the Teton Range with stories, history, and personal experiences

Wasatch Publishers

"Mountain humor oftentimes comes from people who suffer and have a helluva hard time and still come back alive." Paul Petzoldt knew from personal experience. Teton Tales begins with his near fatal climb of the Grand Teton in 1924. What follows is a collection of stories that trace his trail full of switchbacks from the Tetons to Toledo, from Wyoming to Windsor Castle, from Mount Moran to the Matterhorn, and everywhere in between. For years Petzoldt thrilled audiences with his colorful storytelling and unique voice. Enjoy many of his classic "anecdotes" and some never before heard tales.
