History / Biographical
Lawrence Grassi, 1890-1980, was a miner and mountaineer at Canmore, Alberta, Canada. Grassi was born in Falmenta, Italy and emigrated to Canada in 1912, working first as a section man for the Canadian Pacific Railway and from 1916 to 1945 as a miner for Canmore Mines. Grassi distinguished himself in solo mountain climbing and as an unofficial guide to many other mountaineers. Grassi is best remembered for trail building activities. J. S. Woodsworth led support for legislation to change the name of Twin Lakes in White Man Pass to Grassi Lakes in recognition of this work. As assistant warden at Lake O'Hara, British Columbia, Grassi upgraded and built numerous trails for which he received many honours in later life.

Abstract
The weather looked perfect when Jamie Andrew and his closest friend, Jamie Fisher set off to climb the formidable North Face of Les Droites in the French Alps in 1999. But a sudden and ferocious storm hit them 10,000 feet up the mountain. They were trapped on a narrow ridge in temperatures of -30C, battered by winds so strong the rescue helicopters could not reach them. After five nightmarish nights doggedly clinging to life, Jamie Andrew was finally rescued; but his friend Jamie Fisher had died beside him on the last night. -- From inside cover
