THE ASCENT OF MOUNT HAYDEN, GRAND TETON, 1872: a new chapter of Western discovery.
by Nathaniel Pitt Langford.
Trials and triumphs of the first party to climb the Grand Tetons of Wyoming, July 29,
1872. Author Langford was among the early explorers of the Yellowstone/Teton region and
was first superintendent of Yellowstone National Park. His claim to a first ascent of the
Grand Teton has been challenged by later parties, and former park naturalist McCurdy
considers the various claims in the editor's preface. But regardless, the account still
gives a fine record of what mountain climbing was like in the early days in this region.
Reprint from Scribner's Monthly.
Illustrations from Thomas Moran and others, 24 pages.
