Any recommendations for something like this? My brother moved to Seattle from the hellhole that is suburban Houston this year, and I'm looking for a Christmas gift for him that a) he will actually find interesting and b) fits my budget ($60ish). I'm imagining something like the 50 Classics book but PNW-centric
there's been one popping up in my IG for Oregon
i get the sense that it's more "pamphlet"-y than hardcover book
i'll try to find it
[edit]
i have zero affiliation
www.oregonskiatlas.com
looks like $30 + ship
maybe you can find another WA version for the remaining $30...
“snow & spire” john scurlock

or north of the border “soul of wilderness” by john Baldwin

That's rad. Exactly what I was looking forQuote:

It looks like it! I had to resist the urge to pick up a copy for myself. Just gives me another reason to visit.Quote:

This guy is the best for Cascades photography, stories. A living legend. Anyone skipping him is a nitwit.

Oh nice, didn't realize he did physical media besides prints. I've read some of his TRs--well written with superb photosQuote:

Plus he's a Mag. Well, he used to post here occasionally under the user name Unemployed. Last I could find was from 2016.Quote:
