The Last Traverse; Tragedy and Resilience in the Winter Whites by Ty Gagne

4.0

A must-read for anyone who likes to hike the White Mountains, especially if you've done the Franconia Ridge before (in any season) as it will be sure to shake you. Ty Gagne doesn't leave out a single bit of information: so much so that the details almost get in the way of the story, but all of it works together as a cautionary tale against underestimating the whites, even for experienced hikers. When your friends call you crazy for telling them to pack extra water and a jacket for a summer day hike, give them this book.
