The definitive book for our sport of climbing, if you wish to advance at any level consume this book. 7th addition has significant additions and refinements for modern technique on technical ice and rock.
includes everything that one would need to know in the hills. my copy has lived to the point were the cover is duck taped in order to hold it together. highly recommended!
Best possible book any climber could own, be you beginner or advanced. Covers all disciplines, some more in depth than others. There is no reason not to own this "bible"
