Rock Climbing: Essential Skills & Techniques
Product Description
This is the official handbook of the Mountaineering Instructor and Single Pitch Award Schemes. It is the second production from Mountain Leader Training, following Hill walking by Steve Long.
This book is a must have for any aspiring climber, providing reference for those that wish to instruct, coach & lead others.
The book covers areas form ethics to knots to multi-pitch climbing and is written in an easy to read and understand style. The diagrams are in colour and very clear making the tying of knots or equalising of anchors easier to follow.
I would say an essential reading for anyone learning to lead.
