Rockfax for the alps - but a far more sensible size! Clear colour photo topos and routes described via the glacier basins rather than by peak, make this easier to use than the AC guides, however some of the route descriptions are brief to the point of taciturnity and pure rock climbs (even quite famous ones) are not included.
Volume 2 covers the south-western end of the range: the Géant-Vallée Blanche Basin, Envers des Aiguilles, Chamonix Aiguilles.
Please note that Volume 2 no longer covers Mt Blanc and the eastern-flowing glacier areas which are described in Volume 3.
For this third edition, the guide has been updated, expanded, corrected and reorganised in order to take into account changes in climbing conditions and the latest developments in mountaineering, as well as the numerous new routes that have been climbed in recent years.
Over 507 routes in three glacial basins, over 200 photo diagrams and 11 maps.
