Mindguide,
By
This review is from: The Longs Peak experience and trail guide
Mike Donahue was much more a mind guide than a climbing guide. His book is about the experience, the mindshifts that climbing Longs Peak creates, not the climb. His words are literally step-by-step coaching of how to mentally (physically) prepare and plan your climb... In a casually informal but powerful story-telling sort of way. I climbed Longs with Mike twice, the first time with my wife and 8-year old daughter Amy, and my two partners. And Mike's father, Warren Donahue, accompanied us as far as the Boulder Field. We didn't summit... 350 feet from the top the weather shift, hail and lightning hit us, and we descended as rapidly as we could. Then i read Mike's book. Mike and I ended up as partners in leading corporate groups on Thinking Expeditions for a number of years. Some 10 years later I again climbed Longs with Mike, this time with my oldest daughter and her husband. We summited. And this time I had "The longs Peak Experience" in my head. What an amazing difference it made. Read the book. Pay attention. Make the climb in honor of Mike who will be your mindguide all the way up, and more importantly, on the descent. PowerfuL life-changing stuff!
