More about Grey Stone Books

RRP: £9.95
Year: 2006

Description:

John Sparks & Judith Brown

This book is about the appreciation of rock, the exhilaration of climbing, and the sheer pleasure of doing it in some of the most beautiful places on earth. By discarding the arbitrary division between scrambles and rock climbing, we are free to explore all the Lake District's rocky places.

There is no better way to spend a Lakeland day than climbing Scafell Pike via the Esk Gorge, Tor's Buttress and Ill Crags. This book offers a score of such expeditions, from valley floor to airy summit, with hands on rock almost all the way. Less arduous, but equally enjoyable, are days on valley crags like Shepherd's or stand-alone scrambles like Cam Crag Ridge.

This guidebook contains 69 routes from scrambling grade 1 to rock-climbing V Diff which explore the many faces of Lakeland rock.
