À propos de ce contenu audio
After two unsuccessful attempts, Coleman returned with a small expedition party and traveled by canoe and on foot through the remote country surrounding the Nooksack River. Guided by the landscape and aided by local Nooksack guides, the climbers pushed deep into the mountains, carrying provisions and equipment through forests, glaciers, snowfields, and increasingly difficult terrain.
On August 17, 1868, Coleman and his companions reached the summit of Mount Baker. Their route across vast fields of snow and treacherous crevasses brought them into a landscape few outsiders had ever witnessed, and their successful climb became one of the landmark achievements of early mountaineering in the American West.
First published in Harper’s New Monthly Magazine in 1869, Mountaineering on the Pacific is Coleman’s firsthand account of the expedition. Part adventure narrative, part travel writing, and part historical record, it offers a vivid glimpse into the challenges, landscapes, and spirit of nineteenth-century exploration in the Pacific Northwest.
Journey with Coleman into a world of glaciers, forests, rivers, and towering volcanic peaks—and experience the remarkable story of one of the earliest major mountaineering expeditions in the American West.
