This is a lot of guidebook. Over 450 pages, a grand tour of 2000 routes on over 100 crags. Boulders, sport, trad, granite, volcanic, limestone. Whitney Portal, Bishop, the Needles, Moro Rock, Courthouse Reservoir, Yosemite, Tuolumne, Sonora Pass, the Bay Area, Sugarloaf, Lover’s Leap, the Northern Coast. Staggering. For the big areas, this book just scratches the surface, while for many of the smaller ones it’s all you’ll ever need.
