Merchant's Category: Media> Books
Both books in very good condition. Previous owners name inscribed on the frontispiece and the page edges of each book. Some fraying to the page corners and shelf wear to the covers. Volume 1: Recognised as an essential reference work for all mountaineers who climb in the Mont Blanc Range, Snow, Ice & Mixed is unusual among guidebooks in that it is both exhaustive and succinct. For this third edition, Snow, Ice & Mixed has been updated, expanded, corrected and reorganised in order to take into account changes in climbing conditions and the latest developments in mountaineering, as well as the numerous new routes that have been climbed in recent years. Past and present...Volume one of the new guidebook describes more than 750 routes in 15 glacial basins in the eastern half of the Mont Blanc Range - recording for posterity routes climbed by our predecessors while highlighting the dynamism of the current climbing scene; describing cols, notches and minor summits, as well as famous faces and prestigious peaks; and turning the spotlight on recent climbs without overlooking either established classics or rarely trodden lines. Volume 2: Several hundred cols, couloirs, gullies and mixed climbs are described by glacial basin, presented according to the access routes to the basin, with a short description of each route, and with photos showing the line of each route, and including a presentation of each hut and bivouac shelter. This Volume covers the western part of the chain, from the Envers des Aiguilles to the Tre-la-Tete Basin.
