Climber's Paradise: Making Canada's Mountain National Parks, 1906–1974 is a 2014 book by PearlAnn Reichwein. In this book, Reichwein provides a detailed history of the Alpine Club of Canada (ACC) and its involvement in the development of Canada's western Rocky Mountain National parks.[1] Despite its relatively small size, Reichwein shows that the ACC wielded major political influence over Recreational and conservation development in western Canada in the early half of the twentieth century.[2] Reichwein uses mountaineering as a device to examine how Humans interact with the environment and create cultural meaning.[3]

Climber's Paradise was awarded the 2015 Clio Prize for the best book on the history of the Canadian prairies by the Canadian Historical Association.[4]
