Topics covered are first ascents and surveying, the U.S. Forest Service and SNRA, and C.C.C. Camps. The story of Robert and Miriam Underhill, world-renowned mountain climbers from the 1930’s is also featured, as well as more recent mountain climbers of note. The BCHM has partnered with the SNRA and Forest Service for some artifacts on loan in the display. This exhibit will be featured through the 2022 season.
