About this title

Synopsis

Though he has published hundreds of mountain photos in previous books, Mountain Ranges of Colorado will prove to be John Fielder's definitive photographic essay about Colorado mountains. Fifteen years in the making, these images were created on the most remote and strenuous backpacking excursions of Fielder's career as a nature photographer. For the first time in any publication, this book delineates and celebrates the 28 distinct mountain ranges that define Colorado's Southern Rockies. Made with 65 pounds of large-format camera equipment, this collection of 200 mountain images manifests infinite and primal details not possible with any other camera. Rock, ice, tundra, and water-the world above treeline where Fielder loves life the most-come alive with incredible clarity and color. Fielder's text, addressing such topics as how the Sawatch Range differs geologically from the Needles, and why the Gore is so much harder to hike than the Park, helps readers to appreciate the special personality of each. This tribute to mountains is a must for Fielder fans and lovers of the Colorado mountain experience. ""Best Mountain Book"" of 2005 Banff Film & Book Festival.
