Fully updated and enlarged colour edition of the popular scrambling guide to Skye, first published in 2000. The guide uses a slightly larger format than the previous guide and is also colour throughout. A significant number of new outings are described and many route descriptions have been updated.
This is the definitive guidebook to scrambling on Skye and as such it is also an essential guide for any hillwalker wishing to venture into the mountains of The Cullin given as how most Cuillin hill walks end up involving some scrambling at some point. The traverse of the Cuillin Ridge is fully described and new diagrams have been created to show the crucial sections. It doesn't just cover the Cuillin though, there are plenty of scrambles elsewhere on the island if the weather's bad over the mountains.
There are also introductory sections on geology, wildlife and mountaineering history.
Includes 90 colour photographs, 14 colour maps and over 90 coloured hand drawn route diagrams.
