Great Climbing Resource

This is an excellent climbing guide. It includes details for many important routes, and other climbs that are not described are still included on the topos. Lots of good history for the areas as well.

Selected Climbs in North Carolina

This book was an excellent guide to many of the lesser known (and a good resource for the better-known) climbs in North Carolina. The breathtaking photography features the actual climbs and many of the local celebs of the North Carolina climbing community. Mr. Lambert provides interesting, yet informative text that does not get bogged down in climbing lingo. It is clean and precise, but does not fall into the trap of many guide books - boring. It is obvious that he has spent considerable time hanging from the climbs featured. The only complaint is that there is not yet a similar book for South Carolina mountains.
