Classic Cascade Climbs features more than 100 climbing routes across 70-plus peaks--from renowned alpine routes to challenging trad climbs, as well as a handful of sport, ice, and crag options. To determine if it was a “classic” each route was judged on the following criteria: overall quality, popularity, accessibility, style, and historical importance. Climbing beta includes: Peak and prominence elevations and type of rock Grade, approach, route, descent descriptions Detailed photo-based route overlays and topo maps Pitch-by-pitch details, estimated time, recommended equipment Required permits and other special considerations Selected history including first ascents Authoritative and inspirational, this seminal guide also features stunning mountain photography by famed photographer John Scurlock and others.
