Book Description
Tuolumne Meadows is known for its clean rock, clear skies, and fabulous face and crack climbing on spectacular Sierra granite domes. In Rock Climbing Tuolumne Meadows, formerly Rock Climbs of Tuolumne Meadows, local guides Don Reid and Chris Falkenstein share their extensive knowledge of this popular high-country climbing area. Technically part of Yosemite National Park, Tuolumne Meadows, at 8,500 feet, is often uncrowded and cool in the summer, providing an invigorating option to lower elevations. Rock Climbing Tuolumne Meadows is the only guidebook you will need to have a pristine climbing experience on some of the finest rock in the world.

 Come on, it's not _that_ bad! July 11, 2001

[...] Like most every guidebook I've seen, this one has trouble integrating routes with their location on the surface of the earth. You'll probably need to bring a USGS topo map along with this book. The authors provide a PG/R/X "protectability" rating, along with a 0-3 stars quality rating. They cover some of the premier alpine route in Tuolumne, like Cathedral Peak and Mount Conness, though I'd like to see more of these.Let's face it, almost every guidebook out there sucks in serious ways, and this one's not immune. But the reason that there isn't much competition to this guidebook is the fact that this one is so complete. They've probably got around 1000 routes listed.

Same old mistakes as previous versions, same old clumsy ratings. What the hell is "PG" supposed to mean? Why are the same climbs denoted with an alpha and numerical listing??? If you do not own a copy, it is a "must have" but only because you do not have a choice!!
