Achieving a monumental milestone, outdoors publisher Wilderness Press celebrates its 50th anniversary in 2017. With its first publication, the company set the precedent for creating detailed guidebooks written by authors who have hiked every mile of trail. Today, Wilderness Press continues to publish some of the most highly respected books and maps in the outdoors industry.
In 1967, founder Thomas Winnett published the guidebook Sierra North; to celebrate, he hosted a high-altitude cocktail party in the eastern Sierra, 8 miles from the nearest car. Over the years, Wilderness Press has expanded its boundaries to cover the majority of the United States.
Half a century later, our mission remains as essential as it was with the founding: to produce high-quality guidebooks written by experienced practitioners with first-hand knowledge of each step along the trail.
Stop by booth #32090, take a high-altitude cocktail party photo, and learn more about Wilderness Press and our guidebooks!
