The Dorset Bouldering Rockfax will be published in early July and is now available for pre-ordering at a special offer price of £22.95 (RRP £29.95).
This book represents the culmination of eight years of effort, initially in documenting the bouldering on Portland, and later across the whole of Dorset. The first publication by Ben Stokes back in 2007 was a PDF MiniGuide available for download only. It covered 79 new problems in the Cuttings Boulderfield. An expanded PDF MiniGuide published in 2012 covered 253 problems. The fact that the Cuttings Boulderfield alone now boasts 500 problems shows just how busy Ben Stokes and the locals have been in recent years!
Coverage
This book documents 1943 different problems and variations. It is as complete as any bouldering guide can ever be. It covers as many of the known areas as possible and documents the significant problems found there. Of course this is bouldering we are talking about, hence there will always be variations, link-ups and new areas discovered. What is contained though is a huge collection of problems, on some beautiful coastal landscapes, that will keep most boulderers happy for many years.
