Mountain Week concludes with Tom Wessels. He's a naturalist, and author of The Granite Landscape, a book about the unique ecology of bald granite mountaintops. From Acadia and the White Mountains in the East, to Yosemite in the West, he says they have a lot in common- from millennia of history, to the fragile plants on their surfaces.
