Colorado Scrambles includes more than 50 scrambling routes in the major
mountain ranges of Colorado. Author Dave Cooper (Colorado Snow Climbs) climbed
each of these high-quality routes, selecting them based on challenge, rock
quality, location and interesting route finding. In scrambling, climbers use
both hands and feet to get up a mountain, using a rope, if at all, only to
protect short sections. Other than a rope and a little hardware, all a climber
needs is a good pair of boots, a daypack, and foul-weather gear. In technical
terms, scrambling is moving over 3rd- and 4th-class rock, often with a
considerable amount of exposure.
