Rainier Panorama

Rating:
Summary: the best rainier book around
Review: I hiked the 100 mile Wonderland Trail that encircles Mount Rainier a few years ago. The hike changed my life and gave me the quest to collect photos and memorabilia that matched the diverse and unique experience of the mountain. Until I discovered this book, what I typically found were the garden-variety roadside photos available in most coffee table books, postcards, or placemats. What Landon's book gave me was a perfect mirror of my experience. I was able to rediscover the wonders of the mountain at any scale; from glaciated peaks to the delicate flora. The photos are beautiful, and the sequence of photos nearly match the clockwise circle I made around Mount Rainier. Included in the collection are photos of places only someone deeply familiar with the mountain could create, and makes me all the more appreciative of Landon's work and Mount Rainier itself.

Review: This book is worth every cent paid for the collection of outstanding photos of Mt. Rainier. I'm planning on climbing this mountain for my fiftieth birthday next year and was surprised to find so few books on this topic here in New York City. Mr. Landon has indeed inspired me to train for the climb knowing I will be standing on the top of Rainier viewing the breathtaking scenes depicted in his stunning photos! See you at the top!
