This new entry in the Mountaineers Outdoor Expert Series, for intermediate-to-advanced- climbers, presents modern anchoring ideas and techniques for top-roping, rappelling, sport climbing, traditional rock climbing, and mountaineering - all in one comprehensive guide. Leubben covers the finer points of all types of commonly used anchors: removable anchors including hexes, wired nuts, tri-cams, expanding wedges, expandable tubes and cams: natural anchors such as trees and boulders; and fixed anchors like bots and pitons. Photos show a variety of gear placements accompanied by discussion of the pros and cons of each.
