Gregory Crouch

Patagonia is a land trapped between angry torments of sea and sky, a place that has fascinated explorers and writers for centuries, discouraging all but the most devoted pilgrims. Gregory Crouch is one such pilgrim.Enduring Patagonia tracks his expeditions to this windswept edge of the Southern Hemisphere, where he has braved weather, gravity, fear, and doubt to try himself in the alpine crucible at the end of the Americas. Illustrated with more than two dozen black-and-white photographs, Enduring Patagonia captures the many moods of one of the world's last wild places. Crouch recounts the riotous celebrations of successful climbs, the numbing boredom of force encampments, and the quiet pride that comes from knowing that one has performed well and bravely, even in failure.
