Advanced Rock Climbing: Expert Skills and Techniques is for good climbers who
want to get even better—from training to gear, sport climbing to multi-pitch
efficiency, and beyond. Each chapter has detailed advice from some of the
world’s best climbers and guides—Tommy Caldwell, Angela Hawse, Justen Sjong,
Steph Davis, Sonny Trotter, Alex Honnold, Lynn Hill, and more.
Through clear, step-by-step instruction, detailed color photographs, and hard-
earned wisdom, this new guide helps strong climbers increase their speed on
multi-pitch climbs, conserve energy on big faces, train for tendon strength,
improvise self-rescue, and more. Advanced Rock Climbing is for someone who has
been climbing for several years and aspires to transition from intermediate to
advanced levels, experienced climbers who are stuck in a rut, and naturally
talented climbers who are climbing high grades but who may not have the
experience to go further safely.
“The old way of climbing was systematic, methodical, and consistent. Now it’s
anything goes, reacting to every situation differently.” —Tommy Caldwell
