Modern Mountaineering on Alpine Rock, Snow, and Ice

If your experience as a backpacker or rock climber is drawing you higher; if the cold, remote alpine environment calls you nearer, this book is for you. The Mountaineering Handbook will teach you the skills that will take you to the top. Even if you're already an experienced mountaineer, you'll find detailed descriptions of the newest and most effective techniques to refine and organize your methods and equipment. The Mountaineering Handbook isn't mired in outdated traditionalism; its new-school techniques are safer, more effective, and more fun for mountaineers at every level. With constant emphasis on light, fast, and efficient mountaineering, Craig Connally shows you how to:

  • Move quickly up and down rock, snow, and ice with appropriate safety systems
  • Manage mountain hazards, including rockfall, avalanche, lightning, and high-altitude illness
  • Select the best equipment for your personal style and objectives
  • Maintain sound nutrition and training according to the most up-to-date science
  • Understand the human factors of mountaineering--the social and psychological forces that influence critical decisions

Connally's passion for mountaineering is evident in his writing--The Mountaineering Handbook is clever, insightful, and entertaining. He intends to move mountaineering into the twenty-first century, but he's also determined to turn the traditional how-to book on its ear by injecting personality, humor, and thoughtfulness into every page.

Not bad really
Size: Large, Color: Light Grey Heather
I purchased a size Large and it's just a smidge loose but it's nothing that is really noticeable or uncomfy. I'm about 180lbs at 5'9 with somewhat of a beer belly but not a huge one lol. If you're body is about the same as mine and if you want a more fitted feel them go with a medium. So overall it's very comfortable it's my 3rd Amazon brand type of garment or clothing that ive purchased so far. Still too early to tell just how durable it is but I'll be sure to update that eventually. I use it for work (nothing heavy white collar work) and during the warm seasons I absolutely loath regular cotton style shirts. I'm not a fan of the summer weather so I tend to buy clothing that is more suitable for warm temps. This is 100% polyester and it's breathable as heck. That's what I like most about it. The overall texture and feel is somewhat "rough" but soft at the same time (if that makes any sense) but it's nothing that you'll be self conscious about. So don't let that scare you away. It's comfy and inexpensive and I recommend.

Great quality, seems to run just a little big
This is an excellent quality shirt. While I haven't put the "quick-dry" feature to the test, it definitely feels like it would dry quickly if wet. It has a little bit of weight to it but not so much that it feels heavy, just that you're well aware you're wearing it. I picked up a large and I'm about 5'9 and 175lbs (and 14 neck) - and I feel like I'm swimming in this thing (it's a bit on the bigger side). I'm definitely going to order more, probably several, but will likely drop down to a Medium and see how big a difference it makes. Hopefully it fits better without being too small. Overall, great quality and value - highly recommended (whether for golf, work, or just casual outings).
