2006. 225 pp, many photos. This completely revised and updated edition brings together in a single volume the anchoring systems from the first edition of Climbing Anchors and More Climbing Anchors. Most climbers today learn their craft on artificial climbing walls and on sport routes with fixed protection. Their first efforts to lead on trad routes often come as a rude shock--they find that they haven't the skills and training to safeguard the climb or to set up good belays. They may even lack the experience to distinguish good protection from potentially disastrous poor protection. This new edition of Climbing Anchors is the climber's complete and authoritative source of information on protection, from fundamental knots to sophisticated rigging and equalizing skills. New Paperback.
