From the Inside Flap:
Climbing in Australia is a journey across many different rock types, different climbing styles, and different ethics. Use climbing as an excuse to travel, because the non-climbing bits will be pretty special too, camping on the red edge of the world, mythic views from the top of climbs, and shatteringly bright stars at night.
