Mark Seaton is a mountain guide who lives and works in the European Alps—and through his appealing new series, would-be mountaineers can climb along to see how he works, how he stays safe, and how he saves lives.
It’s a beautiful morning at the Marmot Mountaineering School—until an enormous avalanche blocks the path to High Alp Village. How can the students ever get back to the town? Mark the Mountain Guide knows…and he leads everyone on a thrilling adventure through Grumpy Gorge, across the Sorbet Glacier, over the Applestrudelhorn, and home again.
Perfect for little adventurers, the charmingly illustrated book features a fact-packed play section along with a replica carabiner! It’s also endorsed by the International Mountain Guide Association and features an introduction by mountaineer Sir Chris Bonnington.
