Twin Roping in the North Cascades by Nicholas van der Elst

Have you ever dreamt of having the ideal climbing partner? Someone roughly the same height and weight as you, with the same climbing interests and goals? Someone you know and trust and can communicate with almost telepathically? And then how about if that person also loved doing all the trip planning and had like, EMT and SAR training, plus an inside-out knowledge of the whole permitting system? 

Join Nicholas van der Elst as he describes some mountaineering adventures in the North Cascades with his identical twin brother, the park ranger. Featuring: Mt. Rainier, Forbidden Peak, and the north ridge of Mt. Stuart.
