About the Book

A spectacular journey into the underground world of the intermountain west.

There are few places on this planet that remain untouched by human beings. In this stunning visual journey through the amazing world of caves of the Intermountain West, photographer and author Brandon Kowallis, takes the reader on an underground tour of a subterranean wilderness that few people on Earth have walked, crawled, squeezed, or climbed.

Take a look inside:

What a couple of the top cavers in the nation are saying about Fragile Frontiers:

By using exquisite photography along with a wonderfully figurative narrative, Brandon Kowallis accomplishes the difficult task of capturing both the breath-taking beauty and exhilaration of exploration in America’s mountain west caves. —Hazel Barton, featured microbiologist on the Imax film “Journey into
Amazing Caves”

This book’s narrative captures the sense and feel of exploration on the edge of a deep, alpine cave while the accompanying photos beautifully illustrate the hidden treasures that drive cavers to risk the cold, dark reaches of the earth. —Paul Burger, author of “Cave Exploring: The Definitive Guide to Caving Technique, Safety, Gear, and Trip Leadership”
