Detailed Product Description
2014. The fourth issue of a new climbing journal, a superbly done annual in the style of the old Sierra Club Ascent Magazines of 1967-1989.
 
This issue contains these articles: 
  • Montserrat's 5000 rock climbing routes by Sam Bie
  • The Tepuis of the Amazon by Greg Child
  • The Alchemist of Climbing by Doug Robinson
  • North Twin Two Tales by Josh Wharton and Chris Jones
  • A Letter to Steve Roper
  • Ordeal on the Brenva Mont Blanc by Michael Kennedy
  • Humble Pie in the High Sierra by Scott Chapman
  • Dreams of Glory, past and future heroes by Chris Kalman
  • Climbers over 65 by David Roberts
  • Living with a serious climber by Fiona Lloyd
  • Bugaboos by Tim Kemple
  • Wind Rivers over Everest by Mark Jenkins
  • Yellow Ice
  • Rock Rambo by Matt Samet
  • On Not Climbing by Bradley Carter
  • Bugs Attract People by Tim Kemple
Conceived by Allen Steck and Steve Roper — real-deal climbers, diamond tough — Ascent was the first climbing-only magazine with literary writing and high-quality photos. Ascent was, as Roper noted, a 'far-out idea.'

Rock and Ice is pleased to announce that Ascent is back again, and packed full with the very best inspiration and stories climbers have to offer.

Climbing’s most prestigious and acclaimed publication, Ascent is a superb blend of tradition and innovation. This 2013 volume shares intense, personal accounts of climbs and achievements that have shaped the sport as we now know it.  Ascent presents a panorama of experiences with prose and imagery that is as finely honed as a set of front points. Ascent deserves a permanent place on the shelf of every serious climber. New Magazine style format, softcover, with perfect binding (that means squared off and glued, not stapled).
