North Table Mountain: Rock Climbs at the Golden CliffsBy Jason Haas and Ben Schneider, Fixed Pin Publishing, 2008This highly anticipated and long overdue book is Table's first color guide. Virtually every single route is photographed for easy identification and the banner across the top works like a flip book the yellow box moves across the pages, showing where you are along the cliff line so no more walking up to the base with the confused look on your face going "ok so where are we?". Not only that, but routes are color coded for easy identification sport routes are yellow, trad are blue, and boulder problems are green, making the book extremely user friendly. The book is fully comprehensive, including 284 routes and a smattering of boulder problems, nearly 100 of which have never been documented before, including the previously undocumented South Quarry area. The authors also climbed every single route to ensure accuracy and to normalize route grades/quality ratings. |
