Buttermere & St Bees is the new definitive guide from the FRCC for the many and varied mountains crags of Buttermere and the Newlands Valley. For variety the sandstone seacliffs of St Bees get a modern treatment. This guide, in the same format as the new Gable & Pillar, is illustrated throughout with stunning action shots and superb colour photodiagrams of every crag described. As usual with FRCC guides there's information about geology and conservation, local climbing walls, useful contacts and details of campsites and mountain rescue. As befits a definitive guide there are comprehensive first ascents list and crag chart.
