Dorset Bouldering: Portland, Lulworth, Swanage

Description

Dorset has emerged as a major bouldering area in recent years thanks to the hard work of a bunch of diligent locals who have combed the coastline seeking out every block, problem and traverse. In addition to the well known areas of the Cuttings, the Boulderfield and the Neddyfields, the book has extensive information on the West Coast of Portland, many more areas on the East Coast, plus Swanage and Lulworth. It describes nearly 2000 boulder problems on around 400 pages.This Rockfax book is the first one to cover the bouldering in any depth. It completes the coverage adding a wealth of new information and is presented in the standard now demanded by today's climbers. It includes all the usual Rockfax features. Review: Detailed explanations and quality pictures - Only recently got this book, but the quality of the pictures and the detail in the text is amazing. Myself and my teenage son were very happy with this and are looking forward to trying out the climbs. Review: A great guidebook. - An excellent guidebook! Used last week and found everything we wanted. Portland is a great spot for beginners to get into bouldering outside. Lots of variation, nice landings around Portland Bill.
