About Scrambles in the Lake District - Vol 2: Northern Lakes
The Lake District's rich mix of rocks, gills and crags offers the scrambler a complex variety of routes, often well removed from the beaten track. Scrambling - climbing rock that is not usually difficult or steep enough for it's ascent to warrant the term 'rock climbing' - is a way of getting back to a wilder Lakeland and enjoying the freedom of rough mountain country. Part of a two volume guide, Volume 1 covers the Southern Lake District.
The book includes;
- Route notes for 110 graded scrambles in the Northern Lake District arranged by area
- Introductions to each area, indicating the type of rock and any recommendations
- Information on the approach, character, grade and route of each scramble
- Area maps and sketch diagrams of the crags and routes
- Advice on how to approach scrambling safely and with confidence.
