With captivating visuals and narrative, this book explores the evolution of climbing in the Southern United States during the transformative decades of the 1990s and 2000s.

Highlighting efforts of the community to protect climbing areas, Kornylak shares stories about Jerry Roberts, Joey Henson, Greg Kottkamp, Lisa Rands, Adam Henry, James Litz and many more at off-the-beaten-path spots and iconic destinations like the Tennessee Wall near Chattanooga and Horse Pens 40 Ranch in Alabama.
