This guidebook describes 2,500 rock climbs found in and around these mountains. The area covered is based upon the cities of Las Vegas and Mesquite in Southern Nevada with some of the crags being in California, Southern Utah and Arizona.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith the exception of Rainbow Canyon, where approximately half of the routes are traditional climbs, the routes covered in this guidebook are fully-bolted sport climbs. As a sport climbing venue, this area has few peers anywhere in North America thanks to the year-long climbing season, the reliable weather, the low-hassle desert camping and above all the quantity, variety and quality of the routes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe area's most famous routes are iconic, nationally known test pieces such as Chris Sharma's\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003eJumbo Love\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eon Clark Mountain, the gorgeous\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003eGolden For A Moment\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eand its maze of variations in The Cathedral, and the long, crimpy pucker-fests of the Virgin River Gorge. But more importantly for the vast majority of climbers, there is a real depth of quality climbing throughout the entire grade range. Also, perhaps more so than any other of North America's premier sport climbing areas, the routes are extremely varied in almost every aspect. There are perfectly formed 20' micro routes on Gorilla Cliff and brilliant eight-pitch 5.14s on Universal Wall, there are routes of almost every grade, on rock of almost any angle, that use holds of every type imaginable\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt seems likely that, as time goes by, the importance of this region as an epicentre for North American sport climbing will only increase. The amount of rock available and the pace of development are such that future editions of this guidebook will probably require two or even three volumes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003e464 pages full colour\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDetailed information on over 2,500 climbs \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWritten descriptions, maps, topos and photo diagrams\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e- Published by Handbook Publishing \u003c\/span\u003ein 2021\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e- Author: \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eJerry Handren\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e- Region: Mojave Desert around Las Vegas (Nevada Arizona, Utah \u0026amp; California - USA)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e- Edition: 2nd (newest)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e- Language: English\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e- Color: Yes\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e- Pages: 464\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e- Dimension: 6″ wide by 9.1″ tall\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e- ISBN: 978-1-7923-4959-1\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e- Weight: 959g\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Handbook Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41840632692890,"sku":"9781792349591","price":79.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0590\/7310\/1978\/files\/handbook-publishing-mojave-limestone-mojavecover.jpg?v=1791592875","url":"https:\/\/verticallstore.com\/fr\/products\/mojave-limestone","provider":"Verti Call","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
