For anyone who is intrigued with the Pacific Northwest’s majestic peaks, Ever Wild: A Lifetime on Mount Adams gives a first-time, close-up look at Mount Adams through the lens and adventures of author and photographer Darryl Lloyd. Accompanied by his expert narration, Lloyd will present some of 180 color and black-and-white photos, maps, and illustrations from his new book. Through a personal journey, spanning seven decades, Darryl Lloyd cemented his place in the sweeping story of Washington state’s Mount Adams. As the foremost authority on this northern Cascades massif, a sometimes overlooked, but never forgotten, hulk of a mountain, Lloyd will share his alpine adventures, along with doses of human history, geography, geology, botany, and a vital call for protection. Growing up on a ranch at the base of Mount Adams, Lloyd devoted his life to learning the mountain, observing the ebb and flow of its glaciers, photographing the play of light, wandering lush meadows and old-growth forests, hiking boulder-strewn slopes and scaling icefalls...and showing the way for those who’ve followed.
