The Shining Mountain by Peter Boardman (1984)
The Shining Mountain by Peter Boardman (1984)
Two men on Changabang's West Wall. With a new epilogue by Christian Bonington.
Describes Peter Boardman and Joe Tasker's successful 1976 expedition to climb the West Face of Changabang. The route was so cutting edge it went 46 years without a repeat. If curious, you can see the film the Kiwi second ascentionists made on Youtube.
This is the first US printing of this book, made in 1984 after Boardman and Tasker disappeared together high on Everest. The books are near-perfect, little to no signs of wear and dust jackets in mylar, not price-clipped. 193 pages, with index, glossary, and epilogue. One insert of b&w photos in the middle.
This book was anthologized in the popular Boardman-Tasker Omnibus.
