Comments about Mountaineering: The Freedom of the Hills - 7th Edition - Hardcover:
If I had to choose only one book to read for the rest of my life, this would be it. For anyone who does any sort of climbing, hiking or camping, this book will probably teach you everything you need to know about it. As a beginner climber I used it to reference basic knots and techniques. As my skills have grown, I realize how in depth, detailed, thorough and accurate this book is. It covers everything from how to plan a trip to how to rescue a climber from a crevasse. I've never question about climbing that wasn't answered in this book.

Comments about Mountaineering: The Freedom of the Hills - 7th Edition - Hardcover:
This book provides a comprehensive overview of basic skills used in backpacking and climbing. This book is excellent as a reference for more experienced climbers and also an introduction for beginner climbers or those who want to learn more about mountaineering. Its detailed explanations are easy to understand and its pictures and diagrams are clearly descriptive and helpful. It includes sections on first aid, avalanches, and basic rescue. This is my favorite book on mountaineering and climbing.
