Evenin' all,
I did sniff around the site and didn't find any recent postings on this topic.
I'm getting back outdoors after years doing other things. I learned trad climbing in the 80s when it was just 'climbing', and learned with an equally clueless buddy. The things we did through ignorance... Yikes! We did a fair bit of Scottish winter climbing too, again, learning the hard way.
Anyhow... This time around I want to do some alpine climbing, adventurous routes without scaring myself or dying, nice mixed routes eg Frendo Spur. The actual climbing will start in earnest 2021, the intervening months getting fit, taking a course, buying some gear and hiking/climbing outside. So alongside all this, I'm looking for something to read, a general how-to guide to alpine climbing. Anyone have any recommendations? Any/all thoughts welcome.
Have a good evening and safe weekend,
julian
