The Alps are one of the finest climbing regions in the world. To ascend its mountains by even their easiest routes involves expeditions of considerable challenge.
Yet few of these routes require any great technical skill other than basic glacier, and snow and ice technique, a little rock-climbing ability, and good mountain judgement.
The guide gives a full description of each climb with advice on maps and huts. A simple layout map is provided for each ascent together with useful photographs.
It is the first time that the information has been assembled in this manner, removing the need to acquire at least ten definitive guides. 61 mountains are described.
