Collection Furniture Mountain Summit

Women have known the challenges and triumphs of mountaineering for nearly two centuries, and for nearly as long they have been writing about their accomplishments, creating a fascinating, often thrilling literature of adventure and daring. As with other aspects of women's history, however, the literature of mountaineering women has been scattered and largely forgotten. Sixteen of their stories - sometimes published under the name of a male relative, sometimes under anonymous bylines such as "a Lady" - are here recovered and collected for the first time. The women who speak to us in this book climbed on the world's highest peaks and most difficult rock faces, from the English Lake District to the Alps to the Andes and Himalaya. Some were politically motivated, like the American Annie Smith Peck, who considered her spectacular ascents a strategy for advancing the liberation of her sex. Others were staunchly conservative about all matters save their personal right to climb mountains, a right that could rarely be taken for granted and sometimes proved as difficult to win as the summit itself. These stories are as much about people as about mountains. They tell of conflict and cooperation, of women struggling not only to reach a summit but also to negotiate their freedom in a society that preferred they simply stay at home. The editor's introduction provides an overview of the two hundred-year history of women's climbing and places it in the context of that struggle. Mountaineering Women shows how highly skilled, courageous, and determined women have revised and transformed a traditionally masculine activity, while at the same time transforming themselves - each arriving, as Mary Crawfordput it, "at last upon the summit to gaze out upon a new world. Surely not the same old earth she has seen all her life? Yes - but looked at from on top - a point of view which now makes upon her mind its indelible impression".

The Coast Mountains, stretching along British Columbia's western edge, from the Alaska Panhandle to Vancouver, are the most mysterious and remote in western Canada. Inaccessible by car, and featuring some of the highest peaks in BC, the mountains begin as low forested hills whose dark green slopes rise up from the sea. Inland at the heads of long fiords, sharper summits reach above treeline. Beyond this lies the backbone of the range, where the mountains are sheathed in snow year-round and surrounded by vast icefields up to 1,200 square kilometres in size. They are a scenic wonder to be admired from a distance and a wild unknown to be left alone. Mountains of the Coast takes the reader past the lush valleys, up through the treacherous crevasses and across immense ice to the very summits of these towering peaks. The guide is none other than John Baldwin, one of BC's premier mountaineers, who has hiked, climbed and skied these mountains for more than twenty-five years. Here are stories of first ascents, sudden blizzards, rumbling glaciers and dangerous ski traverses over icefields, side-by-side with peaceful scenes of flowering heather and alpine flowers, vistas of sunsets washing russet over snowfields and icefalls, and chance encounters with mountain goats. Baldwin shares both the severe beauty of these wild places and the thrill of being the first person to set foot on peaks where few have dared to tread. Brimming over with dramatic and spectacular scenic photographs, Mountains of the Coast is a breathtaking journey that will appeal to mountain climbers, outdoor enthusiasts and armchair explorers alike.

Gile Mountain - Gile Mountain is located barely within Windsor Co, VT, reaching a height of 1,873 ft. Relatively unimposing considering its height, the true summit cannot easily be seen from the surrounding territory, despite the prominent fire tower atop its summit.

Copper Mountain (Colorado) - Cooper Mountain is a mountain located in Summit County about 75 miles (121 kilometers) west of Denver, Colorado. Its most notable use is as a ski resort, owned and operated by Intrawest, although it provides golf and mountain biking activities during the warmer months.

Table mountain (disambiguation) - A table mountain is a flat-topped mountain. The term may be used, more specifically, to refer to a subglacial volcano, a volcano that formed underneath a large glacier, causing a mountain to form with very steep sides and a flat summit.

Bear Mountain (Connecticut) - Bear Mountain is the tallest mountain with its peak in Connecticut, USA, at 2,316 feet (706 m). The Appalachian Trail climbs to the summit of Bear Mountain; there is no road to mar the rocky outcroppings and blueberry bushes.
