Product Description
Bay Area Bouldering includes over 600 boulder problems within a 1.5 hour drive of San Francisco. Included are over 30 areas from North Coast, South Bay, East Bay and San Francisco. All the classic spots are in this book: Castle Rock, Indian Rock, Mickey's Beach as well as a number of lesser known spots on the North Coast. Sandstone, Schist, Rhyolite, Basalt and Chert are the most prevalent types of stone and each offers a very unique experience. This book includes everything from cruiser jug hauls on sandy beaches to sloper wrestling in lush forests. Author Chris Summit personally climbed and mapped almost every route to ensure the accuracy of the information

Chris Summit's new Bay Area Bouldering Guide covers all of the major bouldering spots in the San Francisco Bay Area, but also provides descriptions of less familiar, but just as high-quality areas along the North Coast. Of course, familiar long-developed areas like Castle Rock State Park, Aquarian Valley, Stinson Beach, Indian Rock, and Glen Canyon are included, but such pristine new spots as Salt Point, Twin Coves and Marshall Gulch can be found here as well. This volume should inspire a new generation of boulderers to continue expanding on the work of their illustrious predecessors. As with other guidebooks from SuperTopo, there are many all-color illustrations, topographics and maps that make it extremely easy to find your way around one of the most popular, major bouldering meccas in the United States.
