<br><br>Try the New England Ski Museum. They're a great organization!<br><br>www.skimuseum.org/Randonee, where did you get your copy of Fire on the Mountain? It's been on my movie list for years.
I'm a member and I try to support them by buying historic ski stuff from them. Be aware that they have lots more stuff than their on-line catalog indicates. They are also sometimes willing to chase down obscure materials for you. (They're digging up an out-of-print book for me as we speak.) Give them a call at 1-800-639-4181.

John wrote the Foreword for the book and took the dust jacket photo. Duke was a good friend of Ralph Bromaghin. I profiled Duke in the latest Northwest Mountaineering Journal:
www.mountaineers.org/NWMJ/06/061_Watson1.html
I believe that John is now 91 and Duke's 91st birthday is next month. Sadly, I saw in the paper that Harriet Clough Waldron, a good friend of Ralph Bromaghin before the war, passed away on August 28 at age 87. She was one of the original Ptarmigan Climbing Club members, the sister of Ray and Ralph Clough.
Here's to the Greatest Generation!
