Draagun1 Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 I like "Mountaineering Freedom of the Hills" talks of many aspects of climbing ,gear ,knots etc. Since it's my first book and new to climbing this is very good to me. I may skimmed through the one by Chapp Dass as it seems familiar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Draagun1 Posted January 4, 2007 Share Posted January 4, 2007 This is not really a climbers only book but was required reading when growing up in the lowlands.Since there are many bottom dwellers here thought it could be a good read.The two that Co authored the book are related.
