Coffeetable book of PNW skiing/climbing/mountain photography
Any recommendations for something like this? My brother moved to Seattle from the hellhole that is suburban Houston this year, and I'm looking for a Christmas gift for him that a) he will actually find interesting and b) fits my budget ($60ish). I'm imagining something like the 50 Classics book but PNW-centric

there's been one popping up in my IG for Oregon
i get the sense that it's more "pamphlet"-y than hardcover book
i'll try to find it
[edit]
i have zero affiliation
www.oregonskiatlas.com
looks like $30 + ship
maybe you can find another WA version for the remaining $30...

I grew up with Ray Atkeson coffee table books on my coffee table. Out of print so might have to find them on ebay:

This guy is the best for Cascades photography, stories. A living legend. Anyone skipping him is a nitwit.
