ReviewsRoper knows the Range of Light like few others. His High Route is a vision born of over forty years' exploration, offering the reader the wilderness trek of a lifetime: a 105-mile traverse of the range, all of it above 9.000 feet, passing hundreds of laks, skirting 14,000-foot peaks, and favoring cross-country travel over the humdrum of maintained trails.

The route follows a general direction but no particular trail, thus causing little or no impact and allowing hikers to experience the beautiful sub-alpine region of the High Sierra in a unique way. With access points noted along the way, the route can be broken into week-long segments, and hikers can choose segments for their skill level. Each of the five route chapters includes an overview highlighting geographical and historical points of interest, maps, difficulty ratings, approach instructions, safety considerations, directions, alternate routes, and accessible non-technical climbs.
