An illustrated history from the Scottish Mountaineering Trust of
the first 100 years of mountaineering in The Cairngorms - one of
the most popular and most famous climbing areas in the UK.
Following on from the successful and much lauded Ben Nevis -
Britain's Highest Mountain, this is the second important book from
the Scottish Mountaineering Trust to document the history of
Scottish mountaineering. "The Cairngorms - 100 Years of
Mountaineering" is a comprehensive history which details climbing
and mountaineering in the Cairngorms from 1893 to 1993, with a
postscript highlighting some of the main developments since then.
It is a tale of human endeavour played out among the remote corries
and cliffs of Britain's premier mountain range. The book recounts
the pioneering activities of climbers drawn to the high hills of
The Cairngorms from all over the country and describes the
continuing development of summer and winter climbing on the famous
granite cliffs located there, as well as on other lesser known
cliffs. This title presents full history of the first 100 years of
climbing in Britain's most important mountain range. It is written
by the foremost expert on climbing in The Cairngorm mountains. It
is heavily illustrated with 300 photographs, many of which are of
historical importance. It is a book which will appeal to all who
have climbed, or aspire to climb in one of Britain's most popular
climbing areas. It is a companion to Ben Nevis - Britain's Highest
Mountain.
