Myriad domes and buttresses of fine granite, pleasant forest slopes, a delightful mountain stream, miles of blue sky, and resplendent sunshine-this climbing in Colorado's Boulder Canyon. An abundance of bolted sport climbs and naturally protected crack routes combine to make this canyon one of the most popular destinations in the Boulder area. Rock Climbing Boulder Canyon is the first book in a series of three that replaces Richard Rossiter's out-of-print Boulder Climbs North and Boulder Climbs South. Including full coverage of Upper Dream Canyon and also information about ice routes, this meticulously researched book is complemented by Rossiter's masterfully drawn maps and topos. Rock Climbing Boulder Canyon is the book to have if you want to explore this amazing climbing resource.

Editorial Reviews
From the Back Cover
The out-of-print Boulder Climbs North and Boulder Climbs South have been revamped and republished as three separate volumes. This is the first of the three, covering all trad and sport crags in the canyon. Former park ranger Richard Rossiter is a master when it comes to maps and topos, and his detailed, accurate route descriptions make this book essential for anyone intending to climb in Boulder. Includes favorites such as Castle Rock, Elephant Buttresses, Cobb Rock and the new Upper Dream Canyon area. Ice climbs are also featured.

Somewhat useful, but very hard to use,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Rock Climbing Boulder Canyon (Paperback)
This guide looked really good when I first got it. But when we went on our trip and drove through boulder canyon, it was very hard to find out where in the guide we were and what climbs were around that area. There are simply not enough photos of the routes. Alot of drawings that are very hard to follow. If it wasn't for the mile by mile crag listing on Mountain Project.com, this guide would have been completely useless. I regret buying it. There must be a better one out there.
