The magic of climbing guidebooks

To Niall Grimes, guidebooks are not sets of written instructions but a magical set of spells. These spells cast their charms over climbers, as they thumb their pages looking for instructions and grades, and lead the readers onto the otherworldly experiences on the vertical, with rock as their medium.

Peak District Grit is the BMC’s latest climbing guide, a select guide to 2750 of the best climbs on gritstone, Diff to E10. Each and every one of these climbs has the power to take the climber to a special place, a place on earth like no other.

This book marks the end of the BMC’s 7th series of definitive gritstone guide. Niall Grimes marks the occasion by looking back over the curious world of BMC gritstone guides.
