Any Dvd's You Recommend?

[Jdoherty]

I probaly won't be able to take any mountaineering classes til next year. I was wondering if there are any dvd's out there that teach belaying and basic mountaineering to hold me over till next year? I searched and found a out of print dvd called waterfall ice but it didn't look like it was what i was looking for.

 

Thanks

I don't know about DVD's, but do you know anyone that could take you to a climbing gym to work on belaying? There is nothing like hands on to learn belaying.

not instructional, but if you want to get a stoke; Front Range Freaks, Masters of Stone I-VI.

 

Freedom Of The Hills is the best climbing resource out there. Get it now and start reading.

As a mountie, I should be praising Freedom of the Hills... and it is a good resource. However, for a contrarian, opinionated, and intelligent point of view, check out Connely's "The Mountaineering Handbook"

I put this out this morning. There is about 100 vids on this channel aimed at mountaineering and climbing education. May or may not be of help.

saw something on amazon, "avoiding the touch" Dvd's; there seems to be a series of them. They are all about strangers with candy in vans or something... No seriously, they are about self rescue, increasing efficiency, etc... Take a peek.
