Mount Rainier is not sleeping so much as pausing. Dwight Crandell reads the volcano's biography in its own rock: recent eruptions, the mudflows that once roared down its valleys, and the restless glaciers still carving the summit. He asks the honest question every hiker should: what is the mountain's future? A short, clear field guide to a peak that is very much alive.

Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
