At an age when most children's lives revolved around toys and TV, George was becoming a fullfledged mountaineer- a passion that stuck with him throughout his young adulthood.



Now decades after growing up among the majestic mountain peaks of the Pacific Northwest, he share3s his most memorable recollections from the sport that changed his life, including working for the Mount Rainier Guide Service during the very different era of the mid-1960s.



Armed with wooden axes, wool clothing, and old-fashioned gear, George gives readers a fascinating front-row view of all the wonder, excitement, laughter, and fear of his many journeys, as sell as the lessons learned and perspectives gained that would last a lifetime.



George Zell Heuston is a former special agent for the FBI who spent twenty-two years specializing in foreign counterintelligence and intellectual property crimes.  His cyber columns have appeared in a local Hillsboro, Oregon, newspaper and on OregonLive.com.
