iBloc Boulder - Topo Italy

<p>This book describes over 352 pages more than 30 bouldering areas with more than 4,000 boulder problems from South Tyrol in northern Italy to Liguria, Valle d'Aosta and Parma.</p< <p>Even the well-traveled bouldering fanatic will be fascinated by the possibilities and the stunning scenery of these areas! Granite, limestone, dolomite, sandstone, porphyry, serpentinite rock, all in the most diverse variations and versions - the variety of rock types is almost unbelievable, and just as fascinating is the landscape in which the different areas are located. From the remote high mountain above 2000 m, with the feel of distant continents, to the nearby sea boulder spots with a Mediterranean flair, everything is on offer.</p> <p>More than half of the book is printed in full color, many Boulder images complete this work. The description of the individual boulder problems is in English. In a "small dictionary" (English- German - Italian) unfamiliar terms can be looked up. Each chapter starts with an overview map of the region. The description of an area usually includes a main route and approach sketch. The area is generally described first, followed by information on directions, access, accommodation, rocks, climate and impact areas each in 3 languages. Each sector of a region is represented by a topo from a bird's eye perspective. Many areas are described with additional photos of the individual blocks.</p> <ul> <li>Topos of the block fields</li> <li>Many block photos with boulder gradients </li> <li>More than 40000 boulder problems in 32 areas</li> <li>352 pages</li> <li>Exact approach information</li> <li>Detailed approach maps</li> <li>Many photos inside</li> </ul> <p>Ulrich and Harald Röker | Gebro Publishing | 1 Edition 2007 | 352 Pages | trilingual German / English / Italian
