This was the first guidebook dedicated to Eldorado Canyon. At the time Pat Ament was one of the leading rock climbers in Eldorado and all the other front range cliffs.
This book is a rock climber’s guide to the formations of Eldorado Springs Canyon, located 8 miles south of Boulder, Colorado. The book was prepared with the help of Cleve McCarty and Jim Erickson and is designed to be comprehensive and accurate, with route descriptions, approaches and descents, history, photos, drawings by McCarty and a rating system similar to the California decimal system.
