Published here for the first time is a selection of Norman Clyde's own writings about his journeys into the remote backcountry of the Sierra Nevada mountains. Of special note, his rate of first ascents far surpassed those of John Muir, Clarence King and William Brewer combined. Additionally, he was often called upon to find downed planes and lost climbers and did so with a tremendous rate of success. Adult.
