Summary:
By the age of 20, Washburn was a mountain-climbing wunderkind who had published four books. Most would consider this accomplishment enough for a lifetime, but for Washburn it was only a beginning. Filled with exciting and entertaining anecdotes and with Washburn's breathtaking photos and maps, "On High" is the first book to reveal, in his own words, his extraordinary life and work.
