This book is the definitive guide to Colorado 14ers. There are newer, flashier books available, but this is the one that goes in my pack before every climb and has for the last 20 years. It is a must have.
Great Reference Book

Great Reference book. Includes maps and directions for the best way to do any of the Fourteeners. Excellent maps to show you physically what you will encounter. Another good reference is [online]where you can read and see photos from folks climbing to check current conditions after picking the one you want to climb from this book.
A useful, interesting guide to Colorado's Fourteeners
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
I used this book as my guide for climbing most of Colorado's 14,000 foot peaks. It includes good route descriptions, photographs of each of the peaks, and interesting historical information about the mountains, and people who have climbed them. The guide also provides excellent maps for the hiking and climbing routes it describes.
Great Overview With the Essential Information

This is one of the earlier books on climbing Colorado's Fourteeners; before everyone was doing it. The book serves as my guide as I work on reaching all of Colorado's summits over 14,000 feet. For one mountaineer's specific tales of high adventure in the Colorado Rockies, read TJ Burr's "Rocky Mountain Adventure Collection."
