Abstract
Pertains to the stories of Ralph Edwards, a former mountain guide. While not a history, the publication serves as a way to commemorate a life well lived in the Canadian Rocky Mountains. Written similar to a diary, the author tells of his personal experiences and lessons learned while in the mountains. Readers are granted a highly personal account of mountaineering from a man who lived among the shadows of the Canadian Rockies himself.
