good guide books?

Can someone tell me of some good guide books or resources for mountains in Washington, Oregon and B.C., or all of the three? And, where I might be able to find them?


Sorry if this is a repeat, or an overasked question. I tried the search and didn't come up with a book specific topic.

Try Martin Volken's book for bc skiing. Or of course Fred Beckey's 3 Cascade Alpine Guides. Or Jim Nelson and his imaginary friend Peter Potterfield's Selected Clamberin in the Cascades. You could buy them online.
Some pages are missing here. . .

Columbia River to Stevens Pass By Fred W. Beckey

Just for Washington, but the Burgdorfer guide (100 classic BC ski routes in WA) is pretty darn complete and has almost a lifetime of ski routes.  Worth owning.  The 2 Oregon guides, Oregon descents by D Wagg and other by CV Tillberg (name escaping me at the moment) are both good though not as encyclopedic as the Burgdorfer. 

The already mentioned Beckey guides will be your most complete mountain/climbing guides. In this vein for Oregon take a look at Oregon High by J Thomas.

Thanks Alpen-Cory!

Oregon High is awesome! (purchase on-line from Powell Books in PDX..out of print but they have many!)

Oregon High is a climbers book and does not have any touring...but has crucial parking, trail and access notes.

Oregon High, Ammar's guide and a short jug of red wine is all you need for planning a decent descent in Oregon!

Pin!

Thanks for the replies everyone...

I got a little anxious and went out and bought a book called "Backcoucntry Ski" by Seabury Blair Jr.. It has 70, mostly intermediate tours in the wesern Washington area.

Nothing to do with skiing or mountainerring, but I also picked up a book called "The White Cascade" It's a ture story about the deadliest avalanche disaster in American history. It is written using actuall acounts from the people who where on board a train that was buried in Steven's Pass in 1910. So far I think it was very well written, and it is giving me a good history lesson on the area as well.
