5 out of 5 stars A must read if you want to start big-walls   July 3, 2004
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I read this book...did a lot of practicing, (got spanked a few times) and then climbed the Washinton Column's Southern Route & Prow along with the regular route on Half Dome and Zodiac on El Cap!

No book will make you a good aid climber...but this book does as much as possible.

If you're in doubt - buy it, its definetely worth the cover price.


5 out of 5 stars Good reference   January 27, 1998
 3 out of 5 found this review helpful

The best way to learn to aid and climb big walls with the exception of going out there and doing it. A good reference for beginners. The illustrations are a little corny. Looked like a throw back to the 1970's. Illustrations probably lifted from "Climbing Big Walls," edited by Mike Strassman.
