"One of the great beauties in Sierra literature, maybe the finest of all in terms of quality of image and text, both individually and in combination." —Kim Stanley RobinsonCalifornia Book Award WinnerThe High Sierra of California is a brilliant tribute to the bold, jagged peaks that have inspired generations of naturalists, artists, and writers. Using traditional Japanese and European woodcut techniques, Killion has created stunning visual images of the Sierra that focus on the backcountry above nine thousand feet, accessible only on foot. Accompanying these riveting images are the journals of Gary Snyder, chronicling more than forty years of travels through the High Sierra backcountry.
