Rock Climbing Joshua Tree, 2nd (Regional Rock Climbing Series)
from Falcon
Price: $23.20

Customer Review:

This book was the basis for Jtree climbing knowledge for years...Now that Randy Vogel already has another guidebook out (which is really good by the way!) and is releasing another one this upcoming January (2008) this book may become out-dated, but still a really good tool if you lack the two new... more info

The Trad Guide to Joshua Tree: 60 Favorite Climbs from 5.5 to 5.9
from Colorado Mountain Club Press
Price: $14.93

Customer Review:

I used this book in conjunction with the Vogel Guides: Rock Climbing Joshua Tree & Rock Climbing Joshua Tree West. The interesting thing about this book is many of the routes don't have any stars in the Vogel guides but are stellar. Funny Bone comes to mind as the best route we did with Vogel... more info

The Last Step: The American Ascent of K2
from Mountaineers Books
Price: $19.75

Customer Review:

Pakistan's magnificent K2 is known also as "The savage mountain." At 28,250 feet it is second only to Everest in height but first in difficulty to climb, endowed with the worst weather in the Himalaya. Five times, American mountaineers had tried to climb this mountain, and failed. Five men had died... more info

Trekking in the Annapurna Region (Nepal Trekking Guide)
from Trailblazer Publications

Customer Review:

This is definitely the best guidebook to carry while trekking in the Annapurna region: loads of maps with most of the teahouses labeled, accurate times for both directions, interesting cultural information, small so as to make it more portable, and fairly up to date. I used it in November 2007, so... more info

from Mountaineers Books
Price: $15.96

Customer Review:

The approach beta in this book for What's My Line and for the Rockfellow formations is better than that found in any other book on the area, including Kerry's book (Backcountry Climbing in Southern Arizona, the acknowledged bible for Cochise). In addition, the updated approach to Warpath, and the... more info

Rock Climbing Virginia, West Virginia, and Maryland
from Falcon
Price: $20.39

Customer Review:

This guide is not very good. We bought during our trip to Seneca rocks and quickly discovered that it was totaly useless. It only covers major areas and descriptions and directions are preety bad. If you are looking for good climbing guide for Maryland get 'Climb Maryland' by Indy Kochte

Kilimanjaro via the Marangu Route: "Tourist Route" My Ass
from iUniverse, Inc.
Price: $9.95

Customer Review:

This IS the best book I've read on my mental prep for Kilimanjaro. Funny at times - a bit of laugh-out-loud toilet humor - but serious about what you experience during summit day. The author is descriptively succinct about the attempt in his short, easy to read publication.
