The Gunks are a neccessary rite of passage for any climber, anywhere, period.
\nThousands of steep, exciting routes await the adventurous spirit that heeds
\nthe call. And with close proximity to many major population centers of the
\nNortheast, it’s easy to get to. The ethic of the area is staunchly
\ntraditional, although you can find a spattering of bolted routes around. Most
\nof the routes are face climbs and protection can consistently be placed in the
\nmany horizontal cracks that abound. Alien cams are the best gear you can use
\nhere, particularly some of the smaller offsets such as the yellow-green and
\nyellow-red. Of course, you should have a full rack with nuts and a few larger
\ncams as well, but Aliens tend to work like a charm. <\/p>\n
Home to the steepest moderates in the country, the ‚Gunks‘ as they are known,
\nare a climber’s paradise. Boasting classic routes on impeccable white
\nquartzite, it’s no doubt the Gunks are an Ultimate Destination. Steeped in
\ntradition and legendary feats, Shawangunk Rock Climbing is no guidebook, but a
\ntribute to adventure and lore. Each page brings you face to face with the
\ncruxes of the area’s most legendary routes. The only thing that will bring you
\ncloser than this hardbound, full-color book is a trip to the cliffs yourself –
\na trip you will definitely make after flipping through the pages of this book.
