The United States offers rock climbers a greater variety of geologic environments than any other country in the world. Drawn to this smorgasbord, climbers cross the country in search of new rock, sharing techniques, equipment, and information. And in recent years millions of new converts have been drawn to the sport as climbing gyms and schools continue to open across the country. Veteran climber and guide Don Mellor suggests in "American Rock" that this newfound popularity may soon cause American rock climbing, once the obscure pursuit of an eccentric few, to become bland and homogenized. In this history and overview, he celebrates a dazzling mosaic of geologic regions and the distinct climbing styles they have engendered, and urges climbers to get out of the gym and take to the road to experience the rich variety of American rock for themselves. In opening up the history of American climbing, Mellor chronicles the rich history and vibrant personalities of the climbing scene, and explores the meanings behind ongoing debates in the climbing community over access, techniques, and equipment. Throughout, he pleads for conservation and respect, to protect these fragile resources for generations of climbers to come.
