i have just started "into thin air," and have been following the arguments
over the whole everest debacle since last spring. krakauer is a great
writer, in my opinion, for this type of story: extremely objective, and
keeps opinions separate from facts.
someone left "into the wild" at the local climbing gym the other night. i
picked it up to read the jacket, and couldn't put it down - no climbing
that night.

hey gweneeth - nothing wrong with a "long" trail name. try this: put a
lone wolverine and a black and white cat in a box together, and see who
jumps out first. :)
