Description
Mountaineering in the mid 1900s “was a time still, when it did not cost us a month’s salary to equip ourselves. This was before the Technocrats arrived to market ever most costly gear.” In other words, some mountaineers still appreciated the more basic equipment of earlier decades.
This article by James Adam Craig recounts his memories and opinions on equipment and the joys of mountaineering and expeditions.
