Disasters, rescues, survival; the mountain and it's people.

After strugling through a snow storm with white out conditions on Mount Hood I found myself in between the pages of this intriging book. Formed of local town, "ZigZag",news articles it covers history from The Explorer's who were held in awe of the "white mountain", The Pioneer's who suffered grotesque hardships going around it, to Mt. Hood's heros and victims of the early twentieth century showing genius of surviving the brutal weather, tons of snow and ice, during climbs, rescues, and building on the mountain. The exciting history documented in this book continues today with Mount Hood, even now, writing her next chapter. The ground is shaking. The locals say she could be our next volcano. Fascinating reading.
