The Last Season

"As Jon Krakauer did with Into the Wild, Blehm turns a missing-man riddle into an insightful meditation on wilderness and the personal demons and angels that propel us into it alone." -- Outside magazine Destined to become a classic of adventure literature, The Last Season examines the extraordinary life of legendary backcountry ranger Randy Morgenson and his mysterious disappearance in California''s unforgiving Sierra Nevada--mountains as perilous as they are beautiful. Eric Blehm''s masterful work is a gripping detective story interwoven with the riveting biography of a complicated, original, and wholly fascinating man.
