Synopsis
Sharp, angular cracks, endless fields of knobs and golden glacier polish, spectacular granite peaks, and fewer people characterize climbs in the Tuolumne Meadows area--one of the finest collections of moderate alpine routes anywhere. Tuolumne Ultra Classics provides SuperTopos for 20 climbs in the 5.4 to 5.10 range. Most are moderately difficult with solid protection.
SuperTopo guides are essential resources for Yosemite climbs. Climbers rave about their perfect mix of history and strategy, ultra-detailed routes, and great photos. Climbing expert and SuperTopo author Chris McNamara includes climbs with exceptional rock quality, elegant lines, fabulous views, and fascinating history. The routes are especially appealing to Yosemite newcomers, but clmbers of all experience and ability will enjoy them again and again.
SuperTopo guides include everything a climber needs to know:
--Unbeatably accurate topos, including pitch lengths and gear sizes
--Route history and stories of colorful climbing pioneers
--Strategy, retreat, and storm information for each route
--Detailed approach and descent maps
