Detailed Product Description
Wyoming, 1986, 1st edition. 136 pp, b/w photos. Used softcover
. Fine.
Excellent guide to all the climbing routes at Devils Tower. Compact and comprehensive book which covers everything from general and historic information to basic climbing information. Includes popular climbs, chronological climbing history, and a listing of hundreds of routes with difficulty ratings and photographs.
From Wikipedia:
On July 4, 1893, local rancher William Rogers became the first person to complete the climb after constructing a ladder of wooden pegs driven into cracks in the rock face. Technical rock climbing techniques were first used to ascend the Tower in 1937 when Fritz Wiessner reached the summit with a small party from the American Alpine Club. Today hundreds of climbers scale the sheer rock walls each summer; each lava column defines its own climbing routes, whose difficulties range from easy to some of the hardest in the world. On some routes the gap between columns is just narrow enough to bridge with stretched-out legs, so the climber ascends doing 'the splits' all the way. All climbers must register with a park ranger before and after attempting a climb.
