Within recent years, Bill has again summited a few climbs from his younger days, often reflecting on where senior climbers fit in the sport's changing social--and environmental--landscape. This memoir is a relatable and nostalgic account of a life well-spent in nature, as the author muses on his long-past adventures enriched and nurtured by the wisdom of the present.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Bill Katra\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1476679630\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781476679631\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Toplight Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/23\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 258\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.75lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.70h x 5.90w x 0.80d","brand":"Bill Katra","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43989874737407,"sku":"9781476679631","price":25.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_87b3d79e-f33a-4a3e-8792-f75d4beb3f68.jpg?v=1683301835","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/mountain-climber-bill-katra-9781476679631","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
