Sierra: Notes & Images From The Range Of Light

These books offer a visual journey through the craggy crest of the North Cascades, the glaciers and wilderness of Mount Rainier, and the luminescent peaks of the Sierra Nevada. Every book gives context to the images by detailing the geological history of the mountains, describing the wildlife and relating stories from the human mountain climbing history of these peaks.

“James Martin’s words and images do the near not possible: bring the thrills of hiking alive in print.” — Art Wolfe

The Sierra Nevada is likely one of the West’s most beautiful and famous mountain ranges. Here Martin shares an intimate view of its rugged landscape, describing his own early history of climbing within the range, attending Ansel Adams-led seminars in Yosemite, and once climbing from there to Mount Whitney and on to Sequoia.
