Author Notes:	Ruth Anne Kocour is a veteran mountaineer with nine international summits under her belt (including Mt. McKinley, Kilimanjaro, Aconcagua, Nevado Illimani, and Mt. Elbrus). She is an artist by avocation and lives in Galena, Nevada. Michael Hodgson , a former mountain guide, is an editor for Outdoor Retailer magazine and also writes for Men's Health and Outside , to name a few. Like Ruth Anne, he continues to seek the wilder side of any mountain. This is his sixteenth book.
