Book Description

Publication Date: July 1, 2006

This sixth edition of "Sport Climbs in the Canadian Rockies" features dozens of new routes and is illustrated with more than 300 topos, maps and photos. It also updates information from the previous five editions. With more than 10,000 copies sold to date, "Sports Climbs" is the guide the climbing community reaches for when it heads to the hills. Sport climbing is one of the most popular types of rock climbing in North America. It is gymnastic, safe and sociable, and it provides a natural progression for those who have learned the sport on climbing walls. In this new edition, the authors have added several new crags and many new climbs, totalling over 1,600 bolt-protected routes in the Bow Corridor, from the Front Ranges west of Calgary to Canmore and from Banff to Lake Louise. This sport-climbing guide complements our traditional climbing guide, "Bow Valley Rock", our alpine climbing guide, "Selected Alpine Climbs in the Canadian Rockies", and our scrambling guide, "Scrambles in the Canadian Rockies."
