Montague "Monty" Alford
----

Managing the Perils of Snow, for experts and not-so-experts ...
If a man has spent his professional life measuring the flow of northern rivers; climbed Alaska's Mount McKinley and a host of other northern peaks; was a member of both Yale University and Maine University scientific expeditions to the Antarctic ; guided a film crew documenting the late Robert Kennedy's ascent of Mount Kennedy; and crossed the St. Elias mountain range, then he is no stranger to ice and snow.

In Winter Wise, Monty Alford shares a lifetime of experience, technique, and personal knowledge of surviving and travelling on ice and snow.
Subjects include:

• Snow Travel
• Dressing for Cold
• Fires and Signals
• Survival
• Ice: Identification, Strength, Dangers
• How and What to Pack
• Food Requirements
• Hints for Winter Travellers
