 extremely helpful March 30, 2008

The book is well-written. The images illustrating a rope-work are big, colored and easily understandable.
Overall, it is a great rope-work guide, covering all necessary aspects of the matter in a consistent, logical way. I really enjoyed reading it. Besides, the book is a pocket-size, so I used to take it with me when I travel (together with a piece of rope for practicing :).

An excellent book. The book covers all the basics, progressing up to some complicated rescue procedures. For the intermediate it's a valiable resource as it presents everything in a step by step manor often complimented with diagrams and the practical applications for techniques it discribes. Any climber wishing to improve their skills and aspirant SPA and MIA's will find this book usefull.

Excellant book, covering just about everything you need to know about climbing rope work and then some! Loads of easy to understand photographs and drawings. Covers anchor systems, top rope anchors, glacier travel, climber rescue, acending ropes and much much more.

An excellent book overall. Only criticisms are that the pages come apart very easily when trying to practice the roping techniques.Well presented and very informative.
