A Climbers’ Guide to the Ice & Mixed Routes of Hyalite Canyon, Montana

by Joe Josephson

Featuring more than 320 ice and mixed climbs across four canyons with more than 340 stunning full-color photos; The House of Hyalite is the definitive guide to one of America’s most accessible, concentrated and influential climbing destinations.

From the modest flows that gave birth to modern ice climbing in the early 1970s, through the pioneering climbs by Alex Lowe, to today’s most technical and inspiring mixed mountaineering and drytooling routes, Hyalite Canyon offers a lifetime of exploration and provides something for everyone.

The book features a special “Indigenous Peoples & Land Acknowledgement” by Francine Spang-Willis, a Foreword by Whit Magro and “A Hyalite Magic” earth science essay by Conrad Anker.

The book is currently at the printer and will be available in August 2019.
