 Outstanding Guide March 18, 2002
28 out of 29 found this review helpful
I've had the guide a while now and have completed the majority of harder scrambles described in the book. All routes have been described with precise detail and further clarified with photographs, providing an excellent route description. A diverse range of routes has been included, with the three star classics to the lesser known routes (which are usually more rewarding). Steve Ashton has evidently put his years of experience into the guide and has produced a classic. Even the size of the guide makes it perfect to go into the back of a mapcase. A very well thought out book that I shall continue to cherish for many years to come.
 An excellent book for the dedicated scrambler September 17, 2000

Steve Ashton presents a range of scrambles (in the main Northern area of Snowdonia only) from the relatively simple (e.g. the Crib Goch ridge on Snowdon) right up to grade 3(S) which look more like serious rock-climbs to me! As a dedicated scrambler (NOT a rock climber) I found enough of the more challenging grade 1s and 2s to satisfy me including the most interesting route up Tryfan - yes climbing Tryfan amongst the East buttresses without feeling the need for ropes - that I have done, and several other routes I hadn't considered. Steve's route descriptions are excellent, with sufficient detail to follow the climb safely but not over long. I can thoroughly recommend the book to those who don't rock climb (they would probably find it all too easy!) but enjoy a challenging scramble to provide an unusual route up a familiar peak.
