My biggest inspiration for all my adventures is without a doubt the book library I am slowly building up over the years. From the early fur traders of the Canadian Rockies to the more recent explorations of the early 1900s, I find it really hard to read these books without having this strong desire to pack my backpack and leave for the mountains right a way. I hope this ever-growing list of mountain literature will make you want to visit your nearest library of independent book store soon!
