The Last Traverse: Tragedy and Resilience in the Winter Whites

2020. By Ty Gagne. The author of the best-selling book, "Where You’ll Find Me", returns to the White Mountains of New Hampshire and masterfully lays out the events that led up to an epic and legendary rescue attempt in severe and dangerous winter conditions on Franconia Ridge. More than a cautionary tale, it is a tribute to all the volunteers and professionals who willingly put themselves in harm’s way to save lives. This is a must read for anyone who hikes the Whites. Softcover. 302 pp.
