Deep Powder and Steep Rock: The Life of Mountain Guide Hans Gmoser (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781771601122)

Hans Gmoser played a major role in creating North America's vibrant mountain community. Although known internationally as the father of heli-skiing, he was much more than that: a talented rock climber, tireless expedition leader, a mountain guide, film maker and organizer.

Deep Powder and Steep Rock presents an intimate portrait of this charismatic man. Much of the story is told in Gmoser's own words, gleaned from his diaries, expedition journals, film commentaries and personal correspondence. It is a unique tale of adventure, hard work, perseverance and ultimate success.
