Its aim is to give a complete and clear overview of all the difticult boulder problems in Fontainebleau, 50 kilometres south of Paris, France. The map on page 242 shows the area where all the descibed problems can be found. A major part of this area is protected. Please leave no rubbish, and, where possible, no traces of 'pof' or magnesium. Only straight up problems rated 7a and harder (about us v6 or British B7) are listed. This edition also includes 34 classic and hard traverses, described on page 237. This list with traverses is not complete at all! Sometimes it is difficult to differeritiate between a traverse and a straight up problem. For a boulder problem to be included in this guide it should go upwards more than sideways and should be the dif?culty a result of the moves upwards. A number of traverse exits, that are outstanding problems on their own, have been described here also. These have a different grade than the complete traverses. Occasionally, the rating of a speci?c problem is disputed. Some of these difficult cases are not mentioned in this guide, others are. Problems that are 7a for people with a certain height but are easier for others (morpho), have been included here as much as possible. This guide therefore also lists 79 problems rated 6c+.

Description Backside text 9 out of 10 climbers are stuck. They are stuck on the same thing. Some of the things that hold climbers back from improving their climbing standards are the same as they were twenty years ago: motivation, managing time, and not being able to analyse and correct their own basic technical or tactical errors. But they are also stuck for a new set of reasons. Twenty years ago, the problem was that no one knew how to train for climbing. Information was scarce and couldn't travel fast among the participants. Today, it's the opposite problem. Book after book lists techniques for climbing, exercises for climbing, tips for climbing. Navigating this barrage of information, filtering out the irrelevant and homing in on what matters to your life, your climbing and your circumstances has been the limiting step for today's climbers. This book is the first to present the science of improving at climbing in a way that will actually help you make confident decisions and stay focused on the things that will make the biggest difference.

Pages: 92 Description Introduction This is the forty-ninth issue of Accidents in North American Mountaineering, published by the AAC, and the eighteenth that has been done with The Alpine Club of Canada. Canada The wet summer of 1995 suppressed climbing activity, ecpecially mountaineering, in much of Canada. Correspondingly, the statistics show a light and even distribution of accidents through most of the year, with a norm of one per month, rising fine weather arrived in September, and predictably, pent-up throngs of deprived climbers rushed out to make up for lost time. The result was a flurry of accidents in September. Again, the predominant causes were falls with inadequate safety systems, and rappel failures and errors. United States Everything goes in cycles, which in the case of causes for climbing accidents is unfortunate. Nothing could be more illustrative of this than the category "Rappel Failure/Error." The number of reports in this category had been in a fairly steady decline, with some spikes, the average having been five per year for the past decade. The two most common errors in the early years were rappelling off the end of one's rope and having the rappel anchor "fail." These were corrected by tying a knot in the end of the rappel rope and having more than one anchor point if the primary protection is not deemed to be bomb proof.

Visit alpineclubofcanada.ca/services/safety/index.html for information on the Alpine Club of Canada's safety program. United States Aside from once again seeing too many belay and rappel errors, it was a year with some major events. Among them: Another runaway sled incident on the Kahiltna Glacier - resulting in a fatality; an avalanche in the Ruth Gorge that resulted in the death of two experienced climbers; a HACE fatality on Mount Shasta; a rappel rigging error by an experienced climber on Serenity Crack in Yosemite (see illustration with this narrative); the aggressive and tenacious French climber on the Salathé Wall of El Capitan who did not give up on his grievously injured partner; the lead climber in American Fork Canyon, UT, who was pulled off by his belayer due to, among other matters, mis-communication; the eleven climbers who ignored the avalanche conditions on the Ingraham Direct, Mount Rainier, and were partly buried as a result; and the 17 climbers struck by lightning on the Grand Teton in August.

Reaching the highest summit in the Western hemisphere requires careful preparation and detailed instruction. R. J. Secor draws upon his extensive mountaineering experience to give climbers all that's necessary to top Aconcagua's 22,841-foot peak. This updated and revised guide features comprehensive information on recommended equipment, safety and health precautions, and conservation issues. It details both the popular and less-traveled routes reached via the Horcones Valley, South Face, and Vacas and Relinchos Valleys. Also included are a climbing history of Aconcagua and a glossary of valuable Spanish mountaineering phrases. With 50 b&w photos and maps. About the Author: R. J. Secor, author of Mexico's Volcanoes and The High Sierra, Second Edition, has climbed extensively in western North America and has been as far afield as the Himalaya and the Karakoram. He resides in Pasadena, California. Description Backside text Aconcagua - at 22,841 feet, the highest peak in the Western hemisphere - is a paradoxical mountain. The normal route along the Northwest Ridge is a walkup; the South Face is defended by bands of loose rock, ice cliffs, and huge avalanches. While this Argentine peak is easily accessible by the highway between Mendoza and Santiago, high altitude and severe weather pose daunting challenges. Aconcagua: A Climbing Guide, now completerly revised and updated in its second edition, is key to understanding the many faces of this mountain and meeting its unique challenges. • • • • • • The only English-language guidebook to Aconcagua Details 27 routes, including both the popular and the less-traveled Covers three major approaches: Horcones Valley, South Face, and Vacas and Relinchos Valleys Information on equipment, permits, and outfitters Information about seasons, weather, and high altitude health Spanish mountaineering phrases Created 2013-02-23, 13:45:04 5 B00874 Library, Skånes Klätterklubb Details Across the Top of the World, 1 st edition To the North Pole by Sled, Balloon, Airplane and Nuclear Icebreaker Author: David, David ISBN: 0-385-31223-7 / 978-0-385-31223-3 Category: Story Format: Paperback Year of publication: 1994 Number of copies: 1 Language: English Publisher: Dell Publishing Pages: 305 Link: Google Description Backside text In the land of fog and ice... Men have attacked it with sleds and dirigibles, snowmobiles and submarines. Men have lied about it, died for it, and some have survived. Increadibly, no one truly stood upon the North Pole until 1968. In 1991 David E. Fisher went there - on a posh, semicomic cruise on the Soviet icebreaker Sovetskiy Soyuz. And now Fisher recounts not only his own colorful adventures, but an increadibly history of frequently mapcap, often horrific explorations - bringing to life a remarkable band of heroes, liars, visionaries, braggarts and fools - as well as such legendary explorers as Frederick Cook and Admiral Peary, who raced to the pole in 1908 and spent the rest of their lives arguing about who won. A riveting, eloquent, often hilarious account, Across the Top of the World takes us to the planet's most forbidding place, and shows where we now stand upon this earth.

Although technical protective systems are often necessary, in the final analysis they are not what keep us safe, say longtime certified guides and climbing instructors Mark Houston and Kathy Cosley. Mastery lies in the far more difficult task of choosing the right technique for the right purpose at the right time. Illustrated with more than 150 photos, Alpine Climbing will teach you how to move quickly and efficiently over rock, snow, ice, and glaciers. More importantly, with Houston and Cosley to guide you, you'll learn to make timely decisions in a complex environment.

Over et år var gået med forberedelserne: samling af holdet, tilrettelæggelse af rute og klatreteknik, prøvetur til de franske alper, og sidst, men ikke mindst, opnåelse af den højst nødvendige sponsorstøtte. Men det er svært at tage alle forhold i betragtning, of det kom da heller ikke til at skorte på overraskelse af både fysisk of psyikisk art under den utrolige tur på bjerget. Udover den spændende beretning, fortalt af de otte selv, er der i bogen kapitler om bl.a. klatreteknik, akklimatisering, udstyr og rute beskrivelse. Fra holdets lysbilled-show gengives i bogen 32 sider farvefotos og 24 sort/hvite billeder.

Det ligger dessutom i vårt eget intresse att för många fler redogöra för vad vi hållit på med och att hos allmänheten sprida kunskap om svensk klättring. Därför tillkom denna skrift, under några hektiska höstveckor, med Kenneth och Ebbe som redaktörer, med Lasse B och Lasse C som huvudsakliga medarbetare men med bidrag från alla övriga. Den föreliggande berättelsen är inte en expeditionsrapport i vanlig mening. Dels ingår några inledande kapitel vilka vi tror ger läsaren en hygglig inblick i våra tankar om klätteretik, i Himalayaklättrandets historia och i själva landet Nepal. Dels förlöper berättelsen som ett antal mycket personligt skrivna avsnitt, sammanhållna av ett mer konkret beskrivet händelseförlopp. Läsaren kommer på så sätt förhoppningsvis mycket nära det var och en av oss upplevt utgöra det väsentliga i begreppet Himalaya. I mer vanlig ordning finns sedan fakta samlade på slutet, medan vi däremot placerat kartorna lätt åtkomliga i mittuppslaget. Mycket nöje!

Oui, ce fut bien une des plus grandes aventures de ce temps, une des plus noblement vécues. Au terme d'une longue accumulation d'efforts et de succès, petits et grands, Maurice Herzog et ses compagnons ont gravi non seulement le plus haut sommet atteint par les hommes, mais plus grands sommets de la terre. Triomphant d'emblée dans une région inconnue, ils réalisaient un exploit que les himalayens les plus avertis avaient jugé impossible. Frank Smythe, le grand alpiniste anglais aujourd'hui disparu, qui avait participé à cinq expéditions à l'Himalaya, conquis le Kamet et rejoint lui aussi l'altitude limite de 8500 mètres sur les flancs de l'Everest, n'avait pas hésité à écrire: "L'alpinisme dans l'Himalaya offre de telles difficultés qu'une expédition n'arrivera jamais, selon toute vraisemblance, à gravir du premier coup l'un des douze sommets culminants." C'est pourtant ce qu'a fait à l'Annapurna l'Expédition de 1950. Une victoire himalayenne, c'est une victoire d'équipe. Tous les membres de l'Expédition, chacun à sa place et plus ou moins favorisé par les circonstances, ont été dignes de la confiance mise en eu; tous se sont découés totalement, comme ils le devaient, pour ramener sains et saufs deux blessés. Mais l'on peut affirmer, sans manquer à la reconnaissance qu'ils méritent, que la victoire de l'équipe fut aussi et avant tout la victoire de chef.

Arco is the name we all know no matter where we come from. At Arco it is possible to climb almost all year round, and the rock is a gem. At Arco there is the Rock Master and the highest concentration of climbing shops in Europe, just as good if not better than Chamonix and maybe even Yosemite. And there is also the most spectacular ice cream ever tasted by a climber (to the envy of both Chamonix and Yosemite). But Arco is also the point of departure: the window opening on to the Sarca Valley, our mother rock par excellence and all her sisters. So five years after our first guide, there is now the need to present a new edition of Arco Rock, brought up to date with 106 proposals instead of the previous 80, with over 3700 pitches on overhangs and roofs, slabs and vertical walls to whet the appetite of every climber. With a third more proposals and not forgetting the hard work of bolting, cleaning, maintaining and rebolting of the crags by a few tenacious enthusiasts, our wish remains the same: that this guide may contribute to your enjoyment, making you go home with new dreams, projects, and a great desire to return.

Because of Geoff Tabin, I don't have to climb five miles into the Tibetan sky, face the fury of an Antarctic gale, eat bee honey with Pygmies, of don a kebowak with naked Dani tribesmen... This book is nothing but pleasure, the best adventures you can have in an armchair. Rick Telander, Senior Writer, Sports Illustrated The sheer athletic feat of conquering the summits of seven continents will suffice to keep most readers turning the pages of Blind Corners. But even the most jaded armchair adventurer will find Tabin's idealistic and idiosyncratic approach to exploration a page turning experience.

This mountainous plateau dominates the skyline above the city and its summit offers phenomenal views of the mountain ranges to the north-east and the spectacular evening sunsets over the Atlantic Ocean. There are a number of excellent climbing areas on the massif, but the two most imressive are the faces below the upper cableway station, Africa and Fountain Ledges. The routes on these imposing and exposed walls tell of bold and pioneering adventures by the great names in South African climbing history. Remember when you are placing a camming device in the Africa Crag traverse that it was first climbed in 1936! Jacobs Ladder climbed in 1953, Roulette in 1969 and Captain Hook in 1972 were all remarkable feats for their time. Much of the climbing on these faces follows the natural breaks which are the main features of Cape Sandstone. This gives exciting traverses and very photogenic postitions overlooking Cape Town.

Located roughly 125 miles to the north of the Arctic or Polar Circle off of Norway's northern coast, Lofoten requires a determined effort just to reach its shores. But in this case, the rewards are well worth the journey. Lofoten is one of the world's most unusual climbing destinations - an unspoiled, arctic archipelago of sun, rain, fog, sea and mountains, snowfields and glaciers - and this is its first climbing guidebook in over 40 years. This chain of verdant yet glaciated granitic islands at 68 degrees North Latitude is formed of 5 main islands and 5 smaller islands. Lofoten is one of the special places within their own country that most Norwegians dream of visiting one day. As such, the magic islands of Lofoten are thought of with a noticeably degree of fondness by all nature-loving Scandinavians. As one of arctic Norway's most treasured jewels, these islands are the repository for unspoiled natural beauty of the wildest order. They are an unrivalled setting for rock climbing, mountaineering, hiking tours, bicycling trips - plus in the winter months - telemark skiing, ice climbing, and winter mountaineering. For centuries, Lofoten has been one of Norway's largest and most important cod fishing centers. The new visitor to the islands can't help but notice the quaint and colorful fishing villages that dot the rugged, rocky coastline, the large A-framed wooden racks for drying out the cod, and the salty smell of fish and sea that immediately greets your arrival.

The climbing experience is second to none and many of the areas covered in this guide are as good as you can find anywhere for the travelling climber, whether it be days of mileage on grade 5s and 6s, or high quality 7s and 8s. Avariety of accomodation is available close to the climbing, ranging from appartments, villas and campsites down on the coast to more rural venues up in the hills, away from the beaches. I you have enjoyed the holiday climbing atmosphere on the Costa Blanca you will be in for an equally good time on the Costa Daurada. The weather during the autumn, winter and spring seasons is usually good for climging and the vast majority of the crags have a sunny southerly aspect. The altitude of many crags is from 500m to 1000m, which means that air temperatures are cooler than on the coast but when the sun is out (which is most of the time) then it is warm. The altitude also means that climbing is a comfortable experience in the early autumn or late spring.

Harrer hade redan före dessa sju år varit med om stora äventyr. Han deltog nämligen i det första replag som någonsin lyckats ta sig upp för den lodräta nordväggen - Den vita spindeln - till det 3970 meter höga Eigerberget i Schweiz. Man har hört talas om dem som kommit upp till högre toppar, men knappast om dem som varit utsatta för större svårigheter och tvingats genomföra större bedrifter. Harrers bok berättar inte bara om denna expedition utan ger även en levande skildring av både tidigare och senare försök. Det är lätt att få svindel när man får veta att männen fick vara glada om de på det höga berget hade en tio eller tolv centimeter bred klipphylla att övernatta på. Här kunde de laga mat och fästa varandra med järnkrampor i bergväggen och sedan stående invänta sömnen, kanske i storm och kyla och med ständig risk för snöras och stenskott. Den vita spindel är en krönika om djärvhetens triumf som måste intressera den trögaste, den mest jordbundna. Så förtätad spänning får man mycket sällan uppleva i fiktiv form.

Er bestieg in allen Kontinenten die großen Wände über die schwierigsten Routen und stand bereits auf den Gipfeln von zwei Achttausendern, dem Mount Everest und dem Gasherbrum II. Seine bemerkenswerte alpine Laufbahn war nicht beschränkt auf die bekannten "Supertouren" in den europäischen Nordwänden, sondern wurde geprägt vom Klettern der neuen Richtung im 7. Grad: Free-climbing, Big-Wall-Climbing, Bouldern. Neben dem extremen Klettern widmete er sich der Bergfotogra?e. Die Bergfotos illustrieren die Erlebnisse vom Anfang, als er die dunkle Werkstattgrube als Automechaniker verließ und sich dem Licht der Berge zuwandte. Das Buch schildert die ersten Anfänge an den heimischen Felsen und endet mit den großen Bergen: Mt. Everest und Karakorum. Die Suche nach immer schwierigeren Bergtouren beendet eine Niederlage am Cerro Torre, dem schwierigsten Berg der Erde. Doch eigentlich ist die Größe und die Schwierigkeit des Berges uninteressant für die Stärke des Erlebnisses. Was zählt, ist das persönliche Abenteuer. Der Höhepunkt jeder Bergbesteigung ist der Gipfel, oben zu sein und die Enttäuschung zugleich. Denn wirklich oben ist man nie. Reinhard Karl, der 1978 als erster Deutscher auf dem Everest stand, ist am Morgen des 19.5.1982, einen Tag vor dem geplanten Erreichen des 8156m hohen CHO-OYU-Gipfels, in seinem Zelt in Lager II von einer Eislawine getötet worden. Im Februar dieses Jahres konnte er noch einen seiner größten Träume realisieren und, nach Durchsteigen einer 2000m hohen Wand, vom Gipfel des Fiz Roy in Patagonien, die noch nicht kartierten und namenlosen Berge des südargentinischen Inlandeises, seine Gralsberge, sehen.

The initial book attempted to include the most recently equipped climbing routes in the area. But when I started showing the local climbers the beginnings of the project I began to hear a lot of "buts"... "But you're not going to include this route?!" "But, you forgot that here there's another route between these two..." And I started the task of adding these lesser-know, but equally important climbing routes. I would be finishing up one of the rough drafts and another climber or bolter would come and give me even more information that I had forgotten to include. Before I realized it, I found myself up to my ears in information about routes all over Málaga. It was then that I had to reconsider the project and decide exactly what I wanted to do with this book and what I wanted people to use it for. The veteran climbers and the bolters welcomed the chance to learn about unknown routes and recover those that represented our first steps in the history of climbing in Málaga but had since been forgotten. This encouragement, plus the fact that it was a rare opportunity, led to the realization of this book. "Climbing in Málaga 1: El Chorro" is one of a series of books in a grand effort to include all the possible climbing routes in the province of Málaga; not only sport climbing routes but also trad and aid climbing routes. This "grand effort" also includes the use of digital photographs taken of the routes (95% of the photographs in this book are the result of over 6000 shots taken over a period of a year and a half) and has been accomplished with the collaboration of many climbers and bolters.

The climbs are selected as individual entities rather than part of one of the traditional circuits that appear in the earlier guide. It describes 3000 of the harder boulder problems from throughout the Fontainebleau Forest in France. These are split into 92 different sectors and the authors have pointed to 250 problems of outstanding quality. There are 120 details maps - both general location maps and boulder layouts. Finding the best boulder problems in the complex forest is a real problem and the maps and boulder layouts in this guide, together with the crucial local knowledge and advice are thus of great value. This should prove to be the guide that really unveils the climbing treasures of the Fontainebleau Forest to the whole English speaking world. Description Introduction Fontainebleau Bouldering "Off-Piste" is the second selected guidebook by the experienced Montchaussé/ Godoffe team to this famous French climbing area. They have detailed the location of thousands of harder boulder problems. These are to be found in a wide range of sites in this outstanding bouldering region - the enchanting but complex Fontainebleau Forest, south of Paris. "Font" bouldering has (in keeping with world trends) advanced far beyond its traditional Circuit ("On Piste") approach of colour-coded, multi-boulder, fast-moving climbing courses. The Circuits reflect a steady climbing development over the past century and are, as a result, mainly pitched at the middle and lower grades. These traditional, highly enjoyable targets are described in the companion guide - Fontainebleau Climbs. In their quest "Off-Piste" the authors have listed the harder problems in the main areas and also on many lesser known groups of boulder dotted around the forest. Some 3000 problems of grade 6 and above have been identified (some colour coded, most not) giving superb objectives for years of activity for even the most dedicated enthusiast. Situated in a such a splendid setting in the heart of Europe - close to railways, airports and motorways - the rocks of Fontainebleau are a unique world-climbing treasure. This gide points to their full riches. What finer inducement can there be for taking regular holiday breaks to explore and sample this marvellous extra facer of French largesse?

A labyrinth of rock with almost unlimited potential, no matter how enthusiastically we develop it. A petrified garden to suit everyone's taste, which you can sculpt in your own image, if only for a few moments. This explains the incredible diversity of styles of, routes, bolting, and ethics within the Siurana region. It's a heritage for everyone who loves the "Vertiquality". There are over 600 routes which are divided into 40 areas, each with a uniqe history; climbs demanding recognition of their history and existence by repeated ascents. These works of art reach out to the "Conquistadors of the Unnecessary", routes superfluous for the majority, some of a moments importance, others of transcendental importance. Siurana is rich with history, and climbing plays an integral role. It played a key role in restoring this village that had almost died, whick could have been lost in moments, even while climbers dreamed of living here. There are now about 20 people living here, and thanks to my years in the refuge "Ciriac Bonet" of the Centre Excursionista de Catalunya, the epicentre of resurgence of activity in Siurana, I can now here the heart beat of the mountains.

Bare en liten del ligger i tilgrensende Aust-Agder. Geografisk betraktet er området preget av de to store innsjøene Fyresvatn og Nisser. Inndelingen er derfor gjort etter de geografiske betingelserne, ikke etter kommunegrensene! Det fjordlignende Fyresvatn begrenses i sør av høye fjellvegger. Mot nord opner dalen seg. Fyresdal sentrum ligger på østsiden av sjøen. Eikhom er en liten sidedal sørvest for Nissedal of begynner ved Haugsjåsund. Jettegrytene er et besøk verdt. De har flotte vannsklier of bademuligheter. Men vær oppmerksom på at det er svært mange turister der på fine sommerdager! Nisser er den tiende største innsjøen i Norge med en lengde på nesten 40 km. Sjøen danner en vid dal omkranset av større og mindre bygder med til sammen 1400 innbyggere. Nisser er kjent for sine lange sandstrender, mange øyer og et mildt klima. Når det regner vest for Fyresdal, skinner ofte solen her! Den beste tiden å besøke området er juli og august. Fra mai til september er det likevel perioder med fint vær. Om vinteren finnes tallrike muligheter for isklatring rundt Fyresvatn og Nisser. Allerede fra mars kjenner en til at det er drevet klippeklatring, også i korte klatrebukser!

Imagine a place with more than 150 waterfalls, almost all of which have easy access and a stable climate that garantees long periods of cold weather. Add in a local population that welcomes visiting ice climbers, a dramatic World War II history and great skiing on offer for 'rest' days and this is just not a place to dream about - it is Rjukan. Situated in the centre of southern Norway, with fairly short access from the main cities, and with world class ice climbing, it is no wonder that the place has rapidly gained popularity. This is the second guidebook to the Rjukan area and hopefully it is eagerly anticipated. The previous guidebook, published in 1996, is now out of print. There are some resources describing Rjukan on the internet none of these do the area real justice in describing what Rjukan has to offer for the visiting ice climber. Rjukan is still a relatively unknown place for most climbers but most who visit Rjukan regularly retuen again and again. The area has also been visited by many of the world's elite ice climbers who are all in agreement about the undisputed quality of the climbing available here. Another important fact about Rjukan is the accessibility of the waterfalls. Most of the climbs described in this guidebook are easy to get to, even in heavy snow conditions. Adding to the beauty of the place are the magnificent surroundings with Gaustatoppen as a natural high, rising nearly 2000m from the valley floor. Rjukan was originally a litte industrial town, but today the area focuses mostly on tourism, meaning that visiting ice climbers are always welcomed by the locals.

The routes spoken about in this book where the first of note in the area or, being of later and more recent times, are those that add to the history by some uniqueness, power, or essential personality. A few of the routes described are pivotal to an era, or to the current era. Some are the most difficult in the area, while many are included for the reason that they are favourites for their beauty - in some cases simple or moderate yet having a quality that has been a fascination to generation. The majority of routes in the Boulder area have at least some beautiful aspect. Choosing involves a responsibility, which I am willing to take based on the years of experience I have had with the rock formations near Boulder. Opinions differ, and certainly there are many worthwhile people and climbs not here mentioned. I have tried to avoid pointless, rinky-dink, or overly contrieved routes, and routes that are dangerous. Of course any route can be dangerous if the climber is not the measure of it. The areas covered in this guide are Boulder Canyon, and Flagstaff Mountain, Green Mountain, Skunk Canyon, Dinosaur Mountain, Fern Canyon, Bear Mountain, Eldorado Canyon and the Mickey Mouse area (above Eldorado to the south). There are many good areas around Boulder to climb, but these hold the true history.

A. Norstedt & Söners Förlag Pages: 285 Link: Google Description Foreword Detta är berättelsen om den vetenskapliga bergsbestigningsexpeditionen i Himalaya 1960-61. Desmond Doig, vår presskorrespondent, språkexpert och beundrare av folket i Himalaya, berättar om hur vi letade efter den gäckande yetin och om allt vi lärde oss om sherpafolkets liv, seder och mytologi. Jag i min tur berättar hur vi byggde "Silverhyddan" på 5 800 meters höjd och lät en grupp vetenskapsmän övervintra där; hur vi kom upp på toppen av det "obestigbara" Ama Dablam, hade våra nappatag med det 8 476 meter höga berget Makalus klippoch isbranter och skänkte en skola åt Khumjung. Vid utarbetandet av den här berättelsen har vi använt material ur redogörelser av de expeditionsmedlemmar som varit direkt engagerade i varje fas - särskilt Michael Gill, Norman Hardie, Leigh Ortenburger, Tom Nevison och Peter Mulgrew. Expeditionen kunde inte ha företagits utan det rikliga och frikostiga ekonomiska stödet från Field Enterprises Educational Corporation, utgivare av World Book Encyclopedia, som visat en pionjäranda värdig ett sådant företag. Vårt första mål, det fysiologiska programmet, utfördes med understöd av The British Medical Research Council, som gav oss riklig hjälp med utrustning och personal. Doktor L. G. C. E. Pugh, en av deras äldre fysiologer, var chef för vårt fysiologiska program och ledare för den övervintrande gruppen. USA:s flygvapen och Wellcome Trust understödde också de fysiologiska undersökningarna. Många organisationer och enskilda personer hjälpte oss att sätta upp expeditionen, och vi är tacksamma för det.

Boken handlar nu på intet vis om Magnus och Torbjörns framfarter världen över. Fokus ligger i stället på att framföra ett stort antal korta anekdoter från åttio, nittio och tvåtusentalen. Långdragna och informativa klätterstories blir fort lika tråkiga att läsa som Sveriges rikes lagbok och hungrar man efter det så kan läsning i denna publikation inte rekommenderas. Boken tar i stället ett sannerligen humoristiskt grepp om sin läsare och man får följa med på en resa bland just "samhällets skuggiga nordväggar". Magnus och Torbjörn berättar inte så mycket om störst, först och bäst utan har i stället lyckats skrapa fram alla de där märkliga, galna och pikanta historierna som bara måste berättas. Vi får möta en mängd personligheter, den ena mer osannolik och galen än den andra, ut genom boken och personprofileringarna utgör en central del i de galna upptåg det berättas om. Boken är uppdelad i tre större kapitel. Det första samlar många galna historier kopplade till Kullaberg. Det andra kapitlet tar upp anekdoter av mer allmän Skånsk karaktär medan det tredje och sista kan sägas ha sin spelplan "bortanför Jönsens gård". Några få mer och mindre kända gästskribenter dyker också upp i boken, för att serverar sina alster. Språket i boken är elegant men ändå lättläst och det märks att både Torbjörn och Magnus har erfarenhet som frilansskribenter. Uppbyggnaden av texterna är varierande och berättandevinklingen ändras ganska ofta. Det är inte så ofta det dyker upp någon publikation i klättersportens namn som tar nya grepp och överraskar. Detta verk får dock sägas vara ett undantag. Description Backside text De har berättats på Kebnekaises regnvåta bivackhyllor, runt de knastrande lägereldarna i Sahara, i hukande mässtält nedanför ett stormpiskat K2, på El Capitans luftiga hangingbelays. Storögt har utsocknes fått höra om Erik problemlösaren, de klättrande privatdeckarna, dr Sternik och gipsbenet. Här är de nu för första gången i tryck - de kullabergensiska klättermyterna ocensurerade! Här låter vi för en gångs skull nostalgi, navelskådning och inbördes beundran växa hej vilt som ogräs i en sällan klättrad handjamspricka. Interna spetsfundigheter, klätterslang och vertikalt fikonspråk - helt utan backup-rep för den oinvigde - kryddar det hela på ett arrogant sätt. Och vi skäms inte ens. Välkommen in i ett livsbejakande universum av amatörism och knäppgökar där upptåg och komplikationer är normaltillståndet.

The Siren's call lies in the simplicity of its lines, but the seduction doesn't just end with the aesthetic: the weather is temperate, the climging is physical, the approaches are rarely long. Indian Creek: A Climing Guide does more than accurately describe the routes, it captures the beauty, aura, and uniqueness of this desert nirvana. Introduction Pure and unvarying, the symmetrical splitters and varnished right-angled corners of Indian Creek approach a Platonic ideal of crack climbing. David Bloom's decade of research has unearthed nearly a thousand routes conveyed here through color photos, cliff topos, and detailed descriptions. Pioneering and current Indian Creek climbers contribute essays from tales of towers to lack of power to the brashness of maiden voyages in an age before Friends. Color photographs from a host of talanted photographers capture the beauty of the region and athleticism of the climbs. Visitors will be astonished by the plethora of choices, and surprised by the full-body workout. On the great routes (and these number in the hundreds) footholds are nonexistent, rests are sparse, and the jamming is unrelenting. For the more adventurous, a multitude of towers adorn the skyline with routes spanning the grades from 5.7 to 5.12. You're holding a passport to a phenomenal desert adventure.

K2 (8611 m), the second highest mountain in the world, is the hardest to surmount of all the wight-thousanders; difficult to access on all sides and positioned seemingly at the end of the world. Only a very few expeditions succeded in reaching the summut during the century which saww the opening-up of the Himalaya and Karakorum. The history of the attempts on this mountain - 'more tragedies than successes' reads like a thriller. Twentyfive years after the firest ascent by a large Italian expedition, in 1954, Reinhold Messner determined to climb K2 by its most difficult route, his projected 'Magic Line'. With a small team consisting of Alessandro Gogna, Michl Dacher, Freidl Mutschlechner, Renato Casarotto, Robert Schauer and Joachim Hoelzgen (who started of as expedition journalist and later became a member of the team), with Terry, the liaison officer and Ursula Grether, as doctor, he set of in May 1979. Unavoidable delays and two accidents during the approach march forced the team to settle for the Abruzzi (Spur) route. On 12th July, after a brilliant climb, Reinhold Messner and Michl Dacher successfully reached the summit.

Kampen om Mount Everest - världes högsta berg - var förd till ett segerrikt slut och den fantstiska höjden av 8840 m beträddes för första gången av mänsklig fot. Men bakom den slutliga triumfen låg många års förbittrad kamp. Först i mitten på 1800-talet kom man underfund med att Mount Everest var jordens högsta topp. Emellertid dröjde det ända till år 1921 innan engelsmännen kunde sända någon expedition dit trots att planerna tillkommit redan före sekelskiftet. Det blev en makalös upptäcktsfärd och dessutom trodde man sig ha funnit en möjlig väg till toppen. 1922 sattes det första verkliga angreppet in och flera bergsbestigare nådde över 8000 m. Två år senare gjordes en ny beslutsam attack varvid Norton tvingades vända bara 300 m under toppen, men expeditionen kulminerade i tragik ett par dagar senare då Mallory och Irvine försvann spårlöst på ungefär samma höjd. 20-talets män var Everests obestridda pionjärer och deras glänsande prestationer överträffades inte under hela 30-talet. Visserligen började det lovande 1933 när man nådde lika högt som Norton 1924, men 1935 hann man bara organisera ett rekognosceringsföretag och 1936 nådde ingen högre än 1921. 1938 års expedition slutligen lyckades inte överträffa resultatet från 1922.

Obestigen, obesegrad, lockar Kanchenjunga som en utmaning, hägrar som ett löfte om den härligaste seger. Avståndet är lång, svårigheterna många och stora - drömmen lever desto starkare. "Det började i Kodaikanal i Sydindien." Från sin färd upp till Himalaya ger oss Per Westerlund målande skildringar av det ofantliga indiska landskapet, av halsbrytande växlingar i klimat och kultur, av dramatiska kontraster mellan fattiga människomassors kollektiviserade liv under brännande tropisk sol och - en ensam, övergiven främlings kamp för att besegra en väldig bergtopp, som höljer sin otillgänglighet i snö, is och dimma. Per Westerlunds sansade och anspråkslösa berättarstil låter händelsernas och miljöernas dramatik framträda med sin egen, obetvingliga kraft.

Många nya leder har tillkommit sedan senaste guideboken gavs ut 1985. Något som länge saknats i de tidigare ledbeskrivningarna har varit en graderingsjämförelse med exempelvis svensk gradering samt en kvalitetsgradering. Vi i Skånes Klätterklubb har därför beslutat oss för att ge ut ett supplement, som i kombination med guideboken ger en i stort sett heltäckande bild av klättringen på Kullaberg fram t.o.m 1987. Det är vår förhoppning att utvecklingen ska följas upp kontinuerligt med nya supplement och att dessa ska bilda utgångspunkt för en mer traditionell guidebok under 1990-talet. Supplementet är uppdelat i tre delar: graderingslista - i vilken kvalitetsgradering inbakats, förstabestigningslista och slutligen kompletteringar till senast utgivna guideböcker - nya leder, rättelser, etc. Den amerikanska decimalgraderingen har valts som internationell jämförelse. En reviderad karta över Kullaberg med klätterväggar och stigar har inkluderats. Referensmaterialet har utgjorts av separata områdesbeskrivningar från Dansk Bjergklubs tidskrift 1970-71, "Kullenfører" 1972, "Supplement" 1975, "Kullenfører - Nordkyst" 1984, "Kullenfører - Sydkyst" 1985, Dansk Bjergklubs tidskrift 1985-87 samt Skånes Klätterklubbs eminenta medlemstidning "Kullamannens röst" 1985-87.

På de sörmländska bergen finns något för alla, oavsett om du gillar att lägga kilar i vackert skurna jamsprickor eller testa fingerstyrkan på borrbultade väggar med tunna grepp. Introduction I nästan ett halvt sekel har klättrare sökt sig till Södermanland, men märkligt nog har det aldrig funnits en förare för hela länet. Den här boken är det första försöket att presentera den sörmländska klättringen på ett övergripande sätt. Förhoppningsvis får du en angenäm klätterupplevelse, såväl på Eskilstunas borrbultade turer som i Simonsbergets fina jamspriokor och oavsett om du är nybörjare eller en garvad klippräv. Den sörmländska klättringen är ett fullvärdigt alternativ till Stockholmsregionens klippor och kan bli ännu bättre.

Created 2013-02-23, 13:45:04 93 B01608 Library, Skånes Klätterklubb Details Klättring vid Ågelsjön och i Norrköpings omnejd, 1 st edition Förare Author: Schlyter, Fredrik ISBN: 91-971338-1-7 / 978-91-971338-1-4 Category: Guidebook/Rock Format: Paperback Year of publication: 1995 Number of copies: 1 Language: Swedish Publisher: Synaps Information HB Pages: 120 Grades: 4 - 8+ Area: Europe - Sweden - Ågelsjön (Norrköping) Number of routes: 210 Climbing type: ice, trad, sport, aid, single-pitch Link: Google Description Introduction Ågelsjön - situated in the Kålmården Forest, a few miles north of Norrköping - is a beautiful crag, named after its darkblue fjord-like lake, and a two-hour-drive south of Stockholm. Driving from Stockholm to Gothenburg or vice versa, it will make the perfect break from motorway-driving on a summer day. Whether hiking, swimming or climbing, Ågelsjön is worth stopping for. Since the crag was discovered in 1988 many new routes have been made and there are no signs that the intense activity will drop. The first and only guidebook soon became insufficient, and this new edition proudly presents over 200 routes of 10 to 40 meters high as well a guide to the 30 icefalls that appear during the winter season when there is a period of cold nordic weather. The rock is of a strange gneiss-granite mixture and is quite awkward to climb until you get used to it. Once you've become friends with the rock, it will offer plenty of good 5.10 to 5.11 climbing and a couple of nice surprises. If you are into sea-cliff climbing, the 25-meter crack-climbs by the lake will appeal. The 40-meter headwall is the major attraction in Ågelsjön. The rich supply of holds of this impressive piece of rock will give an impression of limestone rather than granite. Magnus Rydén, who put up the first route on this wall, Mörkret faller - ljuset stiger (The darkness falls - the light rises) managed to catch the feeling of dusk here in Ågelsjön. When climbing above the water, you are right in the middle of a natural drama. The colour tone of the rock changes into yellow and then orange while the lake darkens and turns black. There are plenty of legends and myths about the Kålmården Forest. Folktales tell of seductive dryads ar dangerous bandits living in the caves of the woods. One of the swedish romantics - Carl Jonas Love Almqvist (1793-1866) wrote about the mythical and mystical forest of Kålmården in his novel Drottningens juvelsmycke (The queen's jewel). The androgynous heroine - Tintomara - is a mesmeric child of nature running around the forest singing strange songs. Interesting enough, Almqvist's enchanting heroine is also a talanted rock-climber. If you have nothing against seductive dryads, cave-bandits or 19th-century ghost-climbers, camping in Ågelsjön is for free and there are plenty of nice spots for a tent. The best place is a large meadow two hundred meters from the carpark. The water of the lake is drinkable. Please keep the area as clean as you will find it. A low profile will help to prevent possible access problems in the future.

Han lämnar sitt jobb och sin flickvän i Kalifornien för att ge sig i kast med allt större utmaningar i Frankrikes alper. Bergen lockar Rand till sig. Han kan inte stå emot dem. Rand är ingen man med stora gester. Han undviker massmedia då han lyckas med en bragd. Men han vill gärna bli en myt, sägenomspunnen och mystisk. I Chamonix på väg till det sägenomspunna Mont Blanc träffar han en ny kvinna. Hon är mer än en i raden av många. Hon får honom att överge bergen för socitetslivet i Paris, men inte länge. Hans förhållande till kvinnor når inte upp till den stora passionen som styr hans liv - att ta sig upp för till synes släta och lodräta bergväggar. I Längtans branter har James Salter skildrat en människa som vill nå de yttersta gränserna för tillvaron - eller upphäva dem. Han vill lämna allt som binder oss vid vardagen; hem, materiella ägodelar, kärlek, för att nå en förhöjd livskänsla. Efter att ha klättrat i femton år återvänder Rand till Kalifornien och söker upp en kamrat som störtat och blivit förlamad. Han säger: -Det enda jag har lärt mig om klättring är att den inte har den ringaste betydelse. Den verkliga kampen kommer efteråt.

Jag tror inte att våra bergbestigare har lockats av hoppet om vinning, fast jag kommer ihåg att jag av folk i Chitral ofta blev misstänkt för att leta efter guld och ädelstenar i bergen - något förnuftigt måste man ju anta att en europe hade för sig. Men både vetgirighet, tävlingslust och äventyrslusta har nog varit med i spelet. Säkert har det gjorts viktiga, både botaniska och geologiska iakttagelser - till och med en lekman blir slagen av blomsterprakten i Chitrals berg - och det är roligt att norska forskare får material från dessa avlägsna trakter att arbeta med. Även filmupptagningarna av folklivet och annat är utan tvivel av värde. Men det som först och främst fängslar och hänför oss är själva bedriften. Och det är väl så att själva den "ändamålslösa" handlingen, utlösningen av alla krafter för att övervinna hinder, har sitt värde också för oss som har suttit hemma och nu skall få följa med på färden i ord och bilder. Vi lever idag i en värld som är tvungen att hela tiden spänna sig så i en handling som riktar sig mot mer eller mindre nyttiga ändamål, konstruktiva eller destruktiva, att det ger en känsla av befrielse att emellanåt få vara med på en färd där ändamålet ligger i själva handlingen. Ingen idrott kräver så många högvärdiga, mänskliga egenskaper som bergbestigningen. Inte bara djärvhet, viljestyrka och fysisk spänst, utan också förmåga att planlägga, kännedom om berget och alla de förändringar det genomgår, nykter värdering av chanser och faror och framförallt ett kamratskap och en laganda som kan sättas på hårdare prov än i någon annan idrott. Och allra mest gäller detta en expedition till avlägsna trakter med på alla sätt ovana förhållanden. Man kan också få användning för den allra högsta formen av mod - det moraliska modet att vända om ifall det skulle visa sig nödvändigt, kanske när det bara är ett kort stycke kvar till toppen. Före avresan antydde professor Næss att det vore det svåraste provet som en ledare kunde bli utsatt för. Lyckligtvis fick man inte användning för den formen av mod. Vi hyllar det samspel av egenskaper som har möjliggjort segern. Vi gläder oss över att traditionen inom norsk bergbestigning har förts vidare fran Kabru och att vi har hävdat oss i en internatíonell tävlan. Och vi känner oss berättigade till att vara stolta över att det blev Norges flagga som först kom att vaja över fjällvärlden från Tirich Mir.

The information you get here is a good base of knowledge for you to take to a doctor or physiotherapist when you think you are suffering from one of the injuries or syndromes. Also, as medicine for climber is still in its infancy (relative to other sports like skiing or football), many doctors might not realize what levels of stresses are being placed on your body. Your knowledge of what might be happening will help the doctor make an informed decision and point you down the correct road to recovery. That said, you should also know this: This book is not here for you to make a self-diagnosis and then come up with your own treatment. Any problem you have that brings you to reading this book should be looked at by a trained professional as the exact diagnosis is very difficult to make.

Val Hennessy, Daily Mail Description Backside text In May 1993, Rebecca Stephens became the first British woman to climb Everest and was awarded an MBE for her achievement. On Top of the World tells the story of that historic climb, the courage and determination it took to scale the world's highest peak. Rebecca Stephens's interest in climbing came surprisingly late, considering her unprecedented Himalayan triumph, when, as a journalist, she accompanied an Anglo-American expedition on Everest's North East Ridge in 1989. Her passion for mountains grew at an astounding rate - in only four years of climbing she scaled some of the world's major peaks: Mont Blanc, Mount Kilimanjaro, Mount Kenya and Mount McKinley. Here, she gives a step-by-step account of the preparation - physical and psychological - for her celebrated feat on Everest, telling of difficulties and fears during the climb, as well as the elation she felt on the summit of the world's highest mountain. More than a straight mountaineering book, On Top of the World is an inspirational story of how a woman - and an amateur - faced an extraordinary challange that changed her life.

Purtroppo non mi resi subito conto di quanto lavoro avrebbe comportato un progetto simile. Con Sabrina iniziammo a ripetere le vie più sconosciute e dimenticate della Valle, scoprendo talvolta dei veri e propri "gioielli alpinistici". Grazie al progetto in ci ci eravamo lanciati, ci rendemmo subito conto della vastità della Valle, di quanto poca in effetti la conoscessimo e delle grandi possibilità che ancora offriva. Scrivere quesa guida, è stato per me una grande avventura, come una vera impresa alpinistica. Ho cercato di approfondire il più possibile le informazioni, ripetendo di persona le vie e trascorrendo intere giornate in casa di amici, verificando assieme schizzi, foto e relazioni. Quello che ne è uscito, è sicuramente il massimo che potevo ottenere dalle mie capacità. Ho pensato questa guida da alpinista e la propongo principalmente ad un pubblico di alpinisti. Non mancano però gli itinerari sportivi sui quali, credo, ogni alpinista ormai ami allenarsi. La valle del Sarca è una miniera inesauribile: ogni anno nascono molte vie nuove, di ogni tipo e difficoltà. Purtroppo le guide che escono di tanto in tanto, seppur ottime, sono sempre antologie di vie scelte. Era mia ambizione anche quella di creare una guida minuziosa, da cui risultasse veramente un quadro completo della situazione in Valle. Creda che siano poche le vie che ho tralasciato, e questo è il punto di cui vado più orgoglioso. La Valle del Sarca, unica nel suo genere per il tipo d'arrampicata che offre, è un piccolo paradiso alpinistico. Inoltre, in questi ultimi anno, si sta scoprendo anche il suo potenziale sportivo sulle grandi pareti. A questo proposito, mi auguro che gli attuali e i futuri chiodatori rispettino sempre e comunque gli itinerari classici. L'originalità della Valle, il suo cuore, la sua essenza, sta proprio nell'indescrivibile bellezza delle sue vie tradizionali.

They can be identified by the presence of spitz on most routes, with closely spaced protections and safe stances, in which moulinettes are used for single-pitch climbs. There are a great number of crags with these characteristics in Sardinia, therefore it has been necessary to make a choice: not all the bolted routes have been included in this guidebook, but at least a good 95% of them. The rest have been excluded, either because they are too isolated from the others or because they are but few in number and many climbers would not be interested in visiting them as yet. I have also included two bouldering areas and two crags where traditional climbing techniques are used on short routes, in order to offer sport climbers the opportunity to confront a different reality. I deliberately ommited the areas or the routes with an alpine stamp but I have included some of the longest routes that are bolted with spitz or are closer in style to sport climbing. The sport climber, if interested, will be able to find an incentive towards other types of climbing and/or alpinism, that will allow a swift transition as opposed to a traumatic experience. On some routes it is necessary to use nuts and friends in addition to the protections already in place, but this will always appear in the route description. Those who are interested in the alpine routes on the island, can consult the definitice guide Monti d'Italia by CAI/TCI, which details them all. The 14 areas described, are always preceded by an introduction with a range of information common to all the crags such as road access, climate, and accomodation. Each crag in described concisely with its history and the general characteristics of the site. This is followed by a table with the list of the routes, bearing the same number as the related graphic. For each route there is given: • the name • the grade • protection • length • person • tips At the side of this information, in a narrower column of text, containing technical news on the crag, like the approach, the exposure to the sun, the style of ascent, the recommended routes, and the type of protections in place.

This is a short topo guide to the most popular of the great routes and crags of Yosemite Valley. The intent is to give an overview of the major routes on El Capitan, Half Dome and the cragging areas of Cookie Area, Glacier Point Apron, and Arch Rock. Description Backside text Steep. Long. Spectacular. These are the world class rock climbing routes of Yosemite Valley National Park which inspire and seduce climbers from all over the globe. Now in its second edition, Rock Climbing Yosemite's Select is the quintessential climber's guide to the best free, mixed and aid lines to be had in the valley - revised with updated route information and park access guidelines. Detailed approach and descent information, descriptive topos, and startling photos will get the experienced cragster floating, flailing or failing on some of the world's biggest, most awesome granite cliffs. Don Reid is a rock climbing guide living in Joshua Tree, California. Introduction Yosemite Valley continues to reveal itself as an incomparable beautiful and vast rock-sculptured wonder. Decade after decade, it has been an inspiring dream for clibers, and provided the fulfilling reality of supreme graniteclimbing experience. The number of climbers attracted to Yosemite, and the level of drama played out in this arena, is testimony to Yosemite's allure, as in the sheer number of routes established by these climbes. It is the claim of this book to distill from these numerous routes the essence of quality Yosemite climbing. In such renowned area as Yosemite, a significant number of routes stand out indisputably as classic in nature. Many others are included here because they have shown themselves to be popular, rewarding - and convenient to reach. Nonetheless, skimming a mere handful of routes out of the barrel clearly is a subjective process. Appraised with close to 20 years of climbing experience in Yosemite Valley, and by associating with the climbers of the valley, the author aims to provide a fun and rewarding sample of Yosemite climbing.

The increased length, ever present concern with route finding and time pressure to finish without benighting, add a further dimension to both the joy and thrill of the climbing experience. However, the descriptions chosen are for routes with little or no loose rock and only minor route finding difficulty. Description Backside text This book invites climbers to enjoy the best of Pyrenean rock climbing, in an area hitherto neglected by British climbers. There are 500m routes on immaculate andesite on the Pic du Midi d'Ossau; 300m routes on hard sandstone in the 10 mile long, one mile deep canyon of Ordesa; whilst the 300m conglomerate climbs on the towers and walls of Riglsos are mind-blowing in their stunning grandeur. Limestone is also represented, particularly at the popular Santa Elena, with its delicate slab climbing. There is an introduction to the easier gorge descents of the remarkable Sierra Guara, where 200m deep canyons provide memorable trips. Introduction This book is intended as an invitation to climbers to enjoy all that is best about rock climbing in the British style, sustained free moves with natural protection in the bigger arena of the Pyrenees and its environs. A 500m route on immaculate andesite leading to the summit slopes of a 3,000m peak is not uncommon on the Pic du Midi d'Ossau. A 300m route on hard sandstone in a 10-mile long, mile deep, mile wide canyon is representative of Ordesa while the towers and walls of Riglos growing out of the Spanish plain give 300m routes of stunning grandeur. The Pyrenees have long been known as a Mecca for walkers and mountain scramblers, but they also offer excellent rock climbing in good weather, magnificent surroundings and with an almost total absence of crowds - at the time of writing. It is normal to have the route to oneself, common to have the face to oneself and occasionally the mountain also.

Wochenlang ist es ungemütlich feucht und kalt. Die Kletterhallen verleiden - wir verlangen nach frischer Luft und träumen vom sonnenwarmen Fels. Welcher Luxus wäre es doch , mit durchgekletterten Fingern im Strassenkaffee an einem Cappuccino zu nippen! Der Traum liegt näher, als man denkt. Es muss nicht immer Finale, Mallorca oder Sardinien sein. Als ich an meinen bisherigen Kletterführern "Schweiz plaisir Ost" und "West" arbeitete, merkte ich, dass die Alpensüdseite ausser mit gutem Wetter auch mit vielen, abwechslungsreichen Kletterzielen lockt. Hier findet man bedeutend mehr "Plaisir" als an den obengenannten Modefelsen. Ich denke an das südliche Bergell, an die für dessen Felsen so typischen Chickenheads, an das alpine Ambiente in der Grignetta, an die 100 Routen von Vaccarese oder an das Aostatal. Dieses Tal, obwohl von allen Himmelsrichtungen gut erreichbar, ist immer noch ein Geheimtip. Ich wette, dass man woanders kaum auf so schöne Strukturen im Gneis stösst. In Italien sind Traversella und Sbarua schon lange keine Geheimtips mehr. Hier wird deutlich, was Plaisirstandard ist: Eine üppige Auswahl von schönen, hervorragend gesicherten Routen von moderater Schwierigkeit, im Superfels.

Es gibt auch das deutsche Wort Pläsier. Die Idee für den Führer mit den Plaisir - Klettereien, - das sind solche zwischen dem vierten und sechsten Grad (nach UIAA) - hatte ich nachdem der Kletterführer "Schweiz-Extrem" auf überaus grosses Interesse under den Sportkletteren gestossen war. Zudem war meine Kletterlust etwas verdunstet, nachdem ich meine erste Route im elften Gradhatte eröffnen können (die zweite Route in dieser Schwierigkeit in der Schweiz). Somit stand meinem neuen Ziel, etwas für die vielen Vergnügungskletteren zu machen, nichts mehr im Wege. Dieser führer ist ein Auswahlführer und beinhaltet, im Gegensatz zu den Führern des Schweizer Alpen Clubs nur die Routen,welche gut abgesichert sind, beste Felsqualität und keine objektiven Gefahren aufweisen, kurz: Plaisir - Charakter haben.

Deshalb musste ich einige Gebiete streichen, die im letzten plaisir West noch beschrieben waren. Es handelt sich dabei vor allem um Felsen von regionaler Bedeutung, die Beispielsweise schlecht abgesichert oder objektiv gefährlich sind. Neue, attraktive und gut abgesicherte Routen gibt es viele. Wer die vierte Auflage des plaisir West durchblättert, dem fällt auf, dass mir die Gebiete um Vallorcine kurz nach der Grenze besonders ans Herz gewachsen sind: kaum ein Katzensprung von Martigny entfernt und trotzdem den meisten noch nicht bekannt. Zugegeben, betrachtet man die Felsen von weitem, ist man ob der üppigen Vegetation enttäuscht. Spätestens aber beim Kletter fällt einem auf, wie vielfältig und strukturiert der Fels ist, und nach der "Autotroute blanche" ist man sich einig: etwas vom Feinsten! Auch an den Aiguilles Rouges gibt es Neuigkeiten, denn die meisten Touren an der langgezogenen Gebirgskette zwischen dem Lac d'Emosson und Chamonix entstanden erst in den letzten Jahren. Und wer einmal die Klettetouren mit der schönste Kulisse der berühmsten Schnee- und Felsriesen Europas erlebt, ist sicher nicht enttäuscht! Aber auch sonst gibt es viel Neues zu entdecken: Denken wir nur an die hübschen Touren am Jägihorn oder an die fantastischen Granitstrukturen der Dri Horlini. Unvergesslich auch die grossartigen Klettereien in bestem Hochgebirgskalk der Engelhörner oder der ausgedehnten Gastlosenkette. Zunehmender Beliebtheit erfreuen sich Kletterfelsen mit bequemem Zugang und familiärer dargestellt, so dass wirklich alle, egal welchen Kletterniveaus, auf ihre Rechnung kommen.

Non è che sia un tempo particolarmente lungo nella storia dell'alpinismo, anzi ci sono decenni che scivolano in sordina, quasi senza lasciare traccia. Nel nostro caso, però, non è così: questi ultimi anni non hanno avuto forse la spinta propulsiva di altri (penso soprattutto agli anni Ottanta), ma si è comunque assistito alla comparsa di nuovi attori che hanno esplorato ancora più a fondo un territorio meraviglioso, oggetto dell'attenzione degli alpinisti da quasi due secoli. Dalla loro opera sono nati un gran numero di itinerari inediti, splendidi per la maggior parte dei casi, sia moderni, nel senso dell'attrezzatura lasciata in posto, sia in stile tradizionale. Questo è un segno evidente che anche qui convivono pacificamente le varie tendenze dell'alpinismo, trovando ciascuna un proprio spazio espressivo, così come simbolicamente, accante a schiere di austere croci di vetta, ha preso dimora sulla cima del Badile un bonario Buddha panciuto che scruta i cieli del Masino invitando alla riflessione. Nel corso di questi ultima dieci anni, pareti mai percorse e addirittura torri mai scalate hanno visto nascere nuovi importanti itinerari, ampliando una proposta gìa molto corposa. Il Masino-Bregaglia, con il suo granito luminosa, gode di ottima salute dal punto di vista della frequentazione degli alpinisti, che ci auguriamo sempre più numerosi e consapevoli di attraversare un territorio unico.

Senaste utgåvan från -96 tog slut relativt fort och det var passande att Internet gjorde sitt intåg i samband med detta eftersom nya klippor och nyturer kunde publiceras där. De nybörjare som skulle ut till Häggsta och andra klassiska tradberg fick länge famla runt i blindo tills helt nyligen då skisserna blev tillgängliga på nätet. Vid utgivningen av -96 års förare var det antagligen inte många som skulle ha trott den som påstod att det tio år senare skulle finnas ytterligare nästan 1000 nya leder att klättra i Stockholmsområdet. Kanske den som visste något om Johan Luhrs målmedvetna plan att spränga tusen-vallen i antalet nyturer, skulle ha kunnat ana vart hän det barkade. I den här guideboken finns det 2582 leder fördelade på ca 150 klippor, vilket gör Stockholmsföraren till Sveriges mest omfattande någonsin. Ambitionen är att alla klätterleder i Stockholmsområdet ska finnas med. Givetvis tillkommer nya leder allt eftersom, men det torde ändå vara en ganska enkel sak att med den här föraren som utgångspunkt hålla sig uppdaterad. På www.plonk.se/sf kommer det att finnas en sida med uppdaterad information och även på www.sverigeforaren.se hittar du uppdateringar. En hel del har också hänt med boulderingen som utvecklats enormt de senaste åren. Att få med alla problem och varianter i den här föraren skulle antagligen kräva ett år av jobb och den entusiasmen har inte riktigt infunnit sig när det gäller Stockholmsboulderingen. Dessutom, vilket är glädjande, är en komplett boulderförare i antågande inom något år eller så. Stockholmsboulderingen är ett klart tillskott även för de som kanske mestadels repklättrar och därför har vi ändå valt att ha med en del bouldering, men mera i översiktsform, utan problembeskrivningar och inte på något sätt komplett. I den här föraren presenteras några profiler som varit delaktiga i utvecklingen av klättringen i Stockholm.

imagination of most climbers could be cought by only a few famous cliffs and mountains. But as the sport grew in popularity, climbers began searching out unheralded areas - places where they could explore new territory and leave behind some of the increasing crowds. Soon, they discovered that North America holds a great diversity of climbing areas, each unique in its climbing experience. This series of guides was conceived to provide an efficient sampling of many different North American climbing areas. Based primarily on photographs, the books also offer selected route descriptions, access maps, and background information for each covered area. The Climber's Guide to North America will allow travelling climbers to experience for themselves the special character of these places through several days of excellent climbing.

Roughly 100 to 150 miles wide, it straddles six countries, dividing India from Tibet. Distinguished by enormous variety of climate, vegetation and wild life, the mountain chain consists of three major ranges: the Himalayas, the Karakorams and the Hindu Kush. Lush tropical valleys and snow-capped peaks dominate the Himalayas and Karakorams, while the Hindu Kush in the far west lies beyond the reach of the monsoons and therefore has much bleaker slopes.

The choice of a visual presentation by topo guides obeys these demands, offering a general appreciation of relief and of neighouring routes unobtainable with a simple description, especially with the number of modern routes, often very close to each another. Giving grades, lining up numbers, adding up pitches or drawing in the background reliefs however are not sufficient to give a good idea of the atmosphereand particularities unique to each wall or each route. A special atmosphere that can only be described by humoristic frescos, sketches or the surroundings or watercolours by Samivel, but these specialities are so extraordinarily difficult to master, demanding such talent and artistic qualities, that it would not be reasonable to consider a generalised application. The text simply regains all its charisma and editorial impact, were we crazy enough to imagine that we could forget about the text without unavoidably missing out on the true message. Let's go then... completely indispensable, it abounds ono each page accompanying the topo, witnessing each particularity of every route chosen, here and there as a support for a touch of humour or the environmental stands of the author and everywhere asserting the personality of the area. This little book speaks to us about granite, of gneiss also but especially of granite and it is a good occasion to show what this rock offers the climber familiar with limestone rocks.

In addition there are full details of the 188 circuits at Fontainebleau, and over 400 routes on the Southern Sandstone at Tunbridge Wells. With over 100 maps and illustrations, this is an indispensable handbook for all rock climbers. David Jones is an experiences rock climber and stills photographer and has climbed extensively throughout Europe. He is the author of The Crag Guide to England and Wales, also published by the Crowood Press. Foreword Welcome, and thank you for purchasing the first edition of this crag climbing guide to Europe. You now have at your fingertips 640 crags and 58 topo diagrams from right across Europe. I have not included every crag there is for obvious reasons, most importantly because the book must go to print now to be ready in time for the 1991 season. Still, there is enough climbing here for about 100 people over about 100 years. I have tried to cover as wide an area as possible and in consequence the depth of information varies considerably. France is very well represented since I have spent over two years there in total. My visits to Spain, Italy and Germany have been a bit more sporadic, so the amount of info on them is not so great. I have brought the whole of Europe into line by using the French grading system throughout; no doubt this will become the norm over the next 5 years. I have included topo diagrams for British crags since they are often unavailable and the ones that do exist have the British Stone Age grading system.

Hague and Hunter base their methods on the four fundamental components of all human movement - balance, force, time, and space - and explain how to apply these principles to achieve efficient results. The DVD presents live demonstrations of training exercises and features an original documentary of a 5.14a/b redpoint attempt by Adam Stack and Chris Lindner. Includes 52 practical training exercises designed to advance technique, detailed anatomical illustrations that explain climbing physiology and an 85-minute DVD that shows concepts in action. Description Introduction The defining conceptual model of climbing performance today is that the two most fundamental abilities a cliber can possess are strength and technique. It's nearly impossible to be a climber without having been exposed to these ideas and developing an opinion about which is more important. The distinction in thought between strength and technique in the climbing community has become an ideological division, and the two concepts are not often used in their correct senses. The ideas of strength and technique undoubtedly form two poles in a philosophical debate about the nature of climbing, but these positions are both very general and built upan abstractions, resulting in a misrepresentation of clibing movement. Those who believe that, at its essence, climbing is most dependent on strength are referring to a general notion of the ability to apply force from the upper body and forearms. Their most fundamental argument is that at some point, no matter how good a climber's technique, he will find holds so small that he will lack the physical strength to hold on. On the other side, proponents of technique provide examples of moves, such as those found on friction slabs, where no amount of upper body strength will make the climber more successful. Proponents of technique will further insist that regardless of strength, the amount of energy wasted in moving inefficiently will ultimately cause the climber to fall short of his potential...

Many of Desmaison's major clibs are described, among them the first ascent of the French Route on the Cima Ovest and a series of winter climbs, including L'Olan (North-West Face), the Central Pillar of Frêney, and the Shroud. Desmaison, always in the centre of controversay in French climbing circles, discusses his experiences with uncompromising directness. His involvment, with Gary Hemmings and Mick Burke, in the dramatic rescue of two German climbers from the Dru, brought him into conflict with the Chamonix rescue establishment, and his attempt to force a new route up the left side of the Walker Spur ended in dispute and recrimination. Desmaison's description of this climb, as he and the doomed Serge Gousseault slowly progressed up the icy walls until storms and fatigue brought them to a standstill, is one of the most moving passages of Alpine narrative ever written.

Warfare imposes a heightened awareness of danger, but climbers, roped together on a preciitous, mountain wall, choose the calculated risk, often for the sake of a glimpse into the infinite; an experience, once tasted, that cannot easily be given up. Joe Simpson, a skilful mountaineer who prefers the company of one or two close friends to the ballyhoo of a grand expedition, was well equipped to tackle the unclimbed West Face of the remote 21,000 ft Siula Grande in the Peruvian Andes with just his partner, Simon Yates. In June 1985 they achieved the summit before disaster struck. A few days later, Simon staggered into Base Camp, exhausted and frostbitten, to tell their non-climbing companion that Joe was dead. For three days he wrestled with guilt as they prepared to return home. Then a cry in the night took them out with torches, where they found Joe, badly injured, crawling through the snowstorm in a delirium. Far from causing Joe's death, Simon had paradoxically saved his friend's life. What happened, and how they dealt with the psychological traumas that resulted when Simon was forced into the appalling decision to cut the rope, makes not only an epic of survival but a testament of friendship that will touch readers far beyond the climbing world.

Så han tvekar inte när CII beordrar honom att likvidera en förrädare - om vilken man bara vet att han ska delta, som en av fyra, i bestigningen av det farligaste berg som någonsin utmanat en klättrare: Eigers nordvägg.

De tolv deltagarna i den senaste av två genomförda svenska Himalajaexpeditioner såg dem resa sig väldiga på många mils håll när de tidigt hösten 1975 - efter många månaders planering och förberedelse - närmade sig målet för sina drömmar. Snart skulle det stora äventyret börja! Två av medlemmarna hade deltagit i den första expeditionen. De andra var oprövade - ännu! Snart skuule också de veta hur det känns att vakna i ett utkylt tält uppslaget på en bräcklig och snöig klipphylla med ett många kilometer djupt stup som närmaste granne, med en blåst utanför som aldrig upphör och som på ett ögonblick kan kasta den oförberedde utför. De skulle också lära sig att passa - och frukta - det plötsliga ryck i midjelinan som innebär att repkamraten tappat fästet och är på väg utför och som tvingar en att handlöst kasta sig över en isig och vass bergskam - åt rätt håll. De fick lära sig hur det är att vara riktigt trött, hur det är att bara orka gå några få steg och sedan vila, att leva nära faran, ha respekt för den och bemästra den. Med de fick också uppleva hur det är att i klart väder se världen uppifrån, att stående på marken se solen gå ned genom molnen och de fick uppleva känslan att ta det sista steget upp till toppen. Att vara högst, att bara ha himlen över sig. Att få pojkdrömmen förverkligad. Ni nådde Nun Kun är en fantastisk ävertyrsberättelse och kan samtidigt fungera som handbok för bergsbestigare.

Much has been learned. To experience Yellowstone is to awaken the senses of the inner being. John Muir, one of America's most beloved naturalists, once stated that in returning to such country as that of this great national park, we almost feel as if we are coming home. Park employees find this sentiment expressed in another way on the wall of their orientation hall. Quoting Arapooish, a Crow Indian Chief, the inscription reads: "Yellowstone ... is a good country.

Hier wurden in den 60er Jahren die neue Philosphie und Technik von "Big Wall Climbing", "Clean Climbing", "Freeclimbing" und "Bouldern" enwickelt. Zum erstenmal kam hier die veränderte Einstellung des Bergsteigers dem Berg gegenüber zum Ausdruck: vom Kampf am Berg zum Spiel mit den eigenen Möglichkeiten; Freiklettern in allen nur denkbaren Schwierigkeiten als akrobatische Turnkunst. Von hier aus ging die Idee des Freikletterns um die Welt. In diesem Buch beschreibt Reinhrd Karl, welcher der wohl beste Allround-Bergsteiger der gegenwart und erfahrener Yosemite-Kletterer war, sieben verschiedene El-Capitan-Routen, die verschiedenen Spielarten des Felskletterns, das Bouldern an den Felsblöcken, die außergewöhnlichen Schwierigkeien an den kleinen Freikletterfelsen und das komplexe Leben in den Tage dauernden Big-Wall-Routen in der 1000-Meter-Wand des El Capitan. Das Ergebnis ist eine Dokumentation in Wort und Bild über die faszinierende Welt des Yosemite-Kletterns und die einmalige Schönheit des Yosemite National Parks. Dieses Buch wurde nicht nur für Extremkletterer, sondern für alle, die in der Bergnatur sich selbst zu erleben suchen, geschrieben. Dem Erlebnisteil von Reinhard Karl ist eine umfassende Chronik des Yosemite-Kletterns von Ewald Weiss nachgestellt. Reinhard Karl, der 1978 als erster Deutscher auf dem Everest stand, ist am Morgen des 19.5.1982, einen Tag vor dem geplanten Erreichen des 8156m hohen CHO-OYU-Gipfels, in seinem Zelt in Lager II von einer Eislawine getötet worden. Im Februar dieses Jahres konnte er noch einen seiner größten Träume realisieren und, nach Durchsteigen, einer 2000 Meter hohen Wand, vom Gipfel des Fiz ROy in Patagonien, die noch nicht kartierten und namenlosen Bere des südargentinischen Inlandeises, seine Gralsberge, sehen.

Hans Florine Beyond amazingly precise big wall beta, Chris McNamara has brought about a new paradigm for Amnerican climbing guides, restoring history and character to thir rightful place beside totally modern topos. Galen Rowell If you are an aspirant wall rat, buy this book. Conrad Anker Description Introduction The definitive guidebook to Yosemite big wall rock climbs. Includes topos for 41 of the most classic Yosemite big wall climbs in unprecedented detail and quality as well as first ascent accounts, profiles of climbing legends, 20 photos, route strategy, retreat and storm information and tons of other essential big wall wall beta. Foreword Welcome to Yosemite Big Walls SuperTopos. This new approach to climbing guides came about because of a need and a surprise. The need was for up-to-date, accurate topos. When I climbed all the routes in this book I was often frustrated by the lack of good beta. Phoning other climbers and hanging out at the Mountain Room Bar filled some holes, but I often found that many routes had evolved into something quite different than what was the set forth in older guidebooks. A great time on an ultra classic route can be soured by not knowing how to prepare. Worse yet is not being able to get off in good shape because of poor route description. Personally, I want precise information so that I can focus on the climbing, not on whether I am off route. So what I aimed for are Supertopos, the most detailed and informative climbing topos ever published. Look for three key features on a Supertopo: • Detailed topo: pitch lengths, gear sizes, beta, beta, beta • Strategy and general information about the route • Detail approach and descent maps Created 2013-02-23, 13:45:04 166 B00786 Library, Skånes Klätterklubb Details Yosemite Valley Free Climbs, 1 st edition Authors: Barnes, Greg; McNamara, Chris; Roper, Steve; Snyder, Todd ISBN: 0-9672391-4-1 / 978-0-9672391-4-9 Category: Guidebook/Rock Format: Paperback Year of publication: 2003 Number of copies: 1 Language: English Publisher: SuperTopo LLC Pages: 209 Grades: 5.5 - 5.12a Area: North America - United States - Yosemite (Fresno, CA) Number of routes: 215 Climbing type: trad, sport, multi-pitch, single-pitch Link: Google Review From 16-pitch trad climbs to one-pitch sport routes, here are more than 230 of the best routes in Yosemite Valley, with detailed topos to topropes, cragging, and multi-pitch climbs in the 5.4 to 5.9 range.

Description Introduction Yosemite is much more than a valley with 3000-foot rock walls and incredible climbing. It is an outlet for the energies of the world's most passionate and adventurous people. Yosemite inspires the souls of climbers and nonclimbers to reach for something beyond themselves and to travel to a place - physical and mental - where they have never been before. Few climbers can resist Yosemite; nearly every cliber who has the opportunity to get to Yosemite manages to make the trip. The first visit to Yosemite is overwhelming - there's so much rock on an incomparable scale. First, the big walls dominate your view: El Capitan, Half Dome, and Sentinel. They seem too massive to be of this world, let alone climbable. Next, you look at all the small cliffs between their giant neighbors. Wait a minute... those "small" cliffs are more than 500 feet high! Is this place real? It's all a bit hard to comprehend at first. There is little to which you can compare Yosemite's wall other than tall buildings, which isn't much of a comparison. All this rock of such unfathomable size fills you with both fear and anticipation. Yet as daunting as the rock faces in Yosemite appear to be, they scream to be climbed. And that's why you've come here. Created 2013-02-23, 13:45:04 167 B00793
