American Alpine Journal 2009

$12.95

Published annually since 1929, the American Alpine Journal is internationally renowned as the finest publication of its kind—the world’s “journal of record” for documenting significant climbs. In the Feature Stories we hear from those who have made many of the most impressive first ascents of the year: the big routes that will become tomorrow’s legends. In Climbs & Expeditions we discover what else has happened in almost all the world’s mountains. The 2009 edition is 400 pages long.

LARGE FILE WARNING! 64 mb download.

The book is in “spreads” layout, not single-page.

See the table of contents below.
