Seller's Description:
Good. Size: 8x5x0; Brooks has kept his mandate clear; he shows where to climb not how to climb. After a short preface and introduction, he gets into the history of the climbing areas and of those whose names are affectionately synonymous with many of the pitches. The three areas of focus: Darrington, Index, and Leavenworth are dealt with in great illustrative detail. The prolific use of maps, illustrations, and route diagrams make this an excellent bookshelf reference for the next time one plans a visit to the area.
I've been climbing with the slab route pioneer David Whitelaw for just a couple of years now, and his descriptive talents have only improved. This early guidebook established his unique pictorial style of topo graphics before the modern graphical standards were codified. On a right-facing dihedral, which way do the hatch marks point? But the overall impression is highly readable, and the artistry is beyond the current norm. This is a must-have for the Northwest climbing guidebook collection.
