BOOK REVIEW - Mountain Gazette Winter '08

"Freedom of the Hills. For the climber or true mountaineer it's various versions are the bible for the sport. Especially if that inlcudes walking, or rapping, postholing, or downclimbing. Mine, well, its only about going up when it's all about coming down. And now ski-mountaineering, or hard-core backcountry, has a bible of it own: Free Skiing: How to adapt to the mountain by Jimmy Oden. It's a new bible for a new age."
