About the book

If you like sport climbing on vertical to overhanging volcanic rock in the sun, you’ll have big days of fun climbing at the Big Chief area near Lake Tahoe, California. Located at 7,000 feet in the mountains between Truckee and Tahoe, this is one of the best cool weather crags in the Tahoe region. Complemented with plentiful camping, the volcanic rock makes for a nice switch from the more typical granite found around Tahoe. Big Chief Area Climbs provides clear, concise beta that has been checked and rechecked. In fact, the author himself climbed almost every single route to verify the accuracy of all the info herein!

Areas included

• Big Chief
• Light Deprivation Buttress
• Little Chief
• Sawtooth Ridge
• Fun circuit ideas are suggested.
