Reviews"I've been waiting for this book for a long time. Professionalism, programming, pedagogy, anchors . . . This is a comprehensive resource for understanding the complexities of teaching in the single pitch environment. Highly recommended!" --Arno Ilgner, AMGA Single Pitch Instructor and author of The Rock Warrior's Way: Mental Training for Climbers, "I've been waiting for this book for a long time.

I wish I had had this book to read before the course to help prepare. If you want a thorough treatise on what to expect in the course, as well as a ton of info on climbing gear and its evolution, this book will fill your needs. Even if you don't intend to take the course and just want to know what are considered best practices by the AMGA, the answers are here." --Russ Clune, AMGA single pitch instructor and standard-setting Gunks first ascentionist
