Eastern Grit rock climbing guidebook
Eastern Grit describes the best traditional rock climbing found on the Gritstone crags on the eastern side of the Peak District near Sheffield. This includes the popular gritstone crags at Stanage, Burbage North, Burbage South, Froggatt, Curbar, Millstone, Lawrencefield, Birchin, Wharncliffe, Rivelin, Dovestone Tor, Bamford, Higgar Tor, Yarncliffe, Baslow, Gardoms, Birchin, Chatsworth, Cratcliffe, and Black Rocks. In total the guidebook covers 19 different crags and over 2,900 selected routes, and includes a limited number of bouldering routes.
At the start of each crag there is a location map, and a good description giving a general overview of the crag and type of rock climbing to be found there. All the routes are illustrated on full colour photographs, topo style, with English grades. All this makes the usual high quality guidebook that is now expected of Rockfax with lots of excellent action photographs.
Published by Rockfax in August 2006 this guidebook is a fantastic upgrade of the popular 2001 publication, and is in English text throughout.
