Yosemite Select: The Best of Yosemite Climbing

by Don Reid

Steep. Long. Spectacular. These are the rock climbing routes of Yosemite Valley. Yosemite Select is a climber's guide to the best of these climbs. Descriptive topos and photos will get the experienced cragster floating, flailing or falling on some of the world's biggest and best granite cliffs. The routes in this book are arranged in geographical order, starting from the west end of the north side of the valley, then moving to the south side, from east to west.Confusion could arise from the existence of other routes not presented in this selected guide. Often, bolts on adjacent, unlisted routes are shown simply as landmarks of the area. Although all routes in this guide are considered to be of good quality, some extend to excellence. A star quality rating is used to better identify various appealing aspects of a climb.

It really doesn't hold up to the unabridged version. Are you that desperate to save weight?
