![]() Rating: - freedom of the hillsThe product is in good shape, as the seller said it would be, but did not arrive until the very last day of the time allowed to ship. (4 weeks after i ordered it) Rating: - It don't get no better than this!This book is the one you are looking for -- jam packed with useful information -- superfantastic! Rating: - The Absolute Pinnacle of Mountaineering InformationWith over 1/2 a million copies sold, Mountaineering: The Freedom of the Hills truly is "the bible" of safe and efficient climbing. With the book measuring in at over one inch thick, it would be impossible to accurately give it justice in the space provided here. Therefore, I'll hit the highlights. The 6th edition, which I have, is divided up into 6 parts: -outdoor fundamentals...covers things such as clothing/equipment/land nav/food -climbing fundamentals...knot tying/rappelling ... Read More Rating: - You Need This Book"Freedom of The Hills" is a must have for anyone who wants to or does spend time outdoors hiking, mountaineering, climbing or needs a reference for the mentioned sports. This book has it all. It is a great read. Like one of the previous reviews, you may want two copies. One for your house and one to take in the field with you. I have read the whole book and continue to review chapters in the areas of interest to me. You will not be disappointed. Enjoy it and get outside !
