For the past six decades, bouldering in the Eastern Washington area has served as a training and testing ground for some of the world’s grittiest climbers. With the sprawling and diverse collection of conveniently accessible and excellent rock, the Spokane River Valley spans rugged hillsides with panoramic views to tucked-away hidden hallways of stone. Climbers of any skill level can enjoy the exploration and challenges that have cultivated the accomplishments and pride of the people who have helped develop the area. Nate Lynch and Shane Collins have spent over a decade cleaning, climbing, and cataloging the Spokane boulders to bring you this comprehensive guide. This book is sure to inspire you with over 700 problems, detailed maps, accurate history, seemingly unnecessary commentary on Star Wars, and action photographs.
