The Mount Cleveland tragedy will remain one of the most enigmatic mountaineering accidents in the United States. In Search of the Mount Cleveland Five is a true story about the coming-of-age of the author that races through twenty-two years of climbing endeavors with colorful Montana climbers and their close calls, antics, and tears. The grief and inspiration of the Mount Cleveland avalanche never leaves the rearview mirror.
