Author photo: Doug McConnery
Mountaineer, photographer, and award-winning writer, Graeme Pole, has ascended 250 peaks in the Canadian Rockies – some greater, mostly lesser. He spent twelve years at Field, BC, and three before that at Lake Louise. His favourite haunts are the front ranges of Banff and Jasper. In his writing and in his mountain travels, Graeme has consistently advocated self-propelled travel, and has spoken out against the incremental urbanization and commercialization of landscapes.

Graeme is author of three guidebooks: "Canadian Rockies SuperGuide," "Walks and Easy Hikes in the Canadian Rockies," and "Classic Hikes in the Canadian Rockies."

He has published one environmental novel, "Healy Park." His most recent books are a popular history of David Thompson, and "Summit Tales" – an illustrated history of early mountaineering in the Rockies. Graeme is working on three more histories, slated for publication in 2006-07. He lives with his family near Hazelton, BC, where he serves as a paramedic.Website: www.mountainvision.ca
