Starlight and Storm: The Inner Thoughts of a Mountain Guide
This is a collection of my thoughts on philosophy and techniques regarding mountain guiding and outdoor leadership. I record each episode unscripted and usually in a single take. Starlight and Storm is a book by Gaston Rebuffat published in 1956. He was a visionary french guide that has eloquently written about guiding and mountain craft. To contact me: shortroping@gmail.com
