Jonathan Waterman is mostly known for his time exploring the North, detailed in seven of his twelve books and in journals such as the Washington Post, The New York Times, Adventure, Hooked On the Outdoors, Outside, Backpacker, Climbing, and Rock and Ice. He is the author of A Most Hostile Mountain, Arctic Crossing, Cloud Dancers, In the Shadow of Denali, Surviving Denali, and Where the Mountains Are Nameless, among others. He lives in Carbondale, Colorado.
“Straospherically the finest in the genre. With this book, Waterman has earned a place alongside such great modern American mountain writers as David Roberts and Jon Krakauer.” –Greg Child, author of Thin Air
“A mountaineering classic, not only because it takes as its subject the nation’s highest mountain but also because Waterman writes with unusual vision and spirit . . . Striking not a single false note . . . this is a strong, mature work by a gifted writer.” --Booklist
