There are similarities in movements on ice, rock, and mixed terrain. The way a climber moves his or her body and the thought processes in movement on ice are remarkably similar to the way in which a climber approaches rock in the summer.

This continuation of FalconGuides’ progressive climbing series invites single pitch climbers to responsibly venture beyond the chains, into the realm of multi-pitch climbing. The farther from the ground a climb leads, the more technical proficiency and careful planning will make the difference between a worthy adventure and miserable epic.

Before you get in way way over your head, make sure the essential skills outlined in this book have been reviewed, rehearsed, and individualized.
