Summary

"Rugged Canyon Jumps" delivers a comprehensive examination of advanced canyoneering, addressing the alarming 47% increase in incidents over the past decade through a systematic approach to training and preparation. This authoritative guide integrates three essential components: technical rope skills, terrain analysis, and physical conditioning, presenting them through a research-backed framework that combines geological data, climbing accident reports, and sports medicine findings. The book distinguishes itself by bridging the gap between theoretical knowledge and practical application, using scientific principles to explain everything from rope dynamics to rock composition. Readers progress through carefully structured modules that build from fundamental concepts to advanced techniques, with each chapter offering practical exercises and real-world scenarios. The inclusion of detailed topographical mapping techniques, both traditional and digital, alongside specific training protocols developed with sports physiologists, provides a thorough foundation for safe and successful canyoneering. What sets this work apart is its evidence-based approach, incorporating data from multiple disciplines including geology, meteorology, and sports science. The book's focus on arid environment technical canyoneering is enriched by contributions from search and rescue professionals, making it an invaluable resource for intermediate-level canyoneers and outdoor professionals alike. Through its methodical presentation of route planning examples, decision-making frameworks, and emergency protocols, the book creates a comprehensive roadmap for developing technical expertise while emphasizing safety and environmental awareness.

    ‘An extraordinary treasure trove’ Andrew Marr 
A unique collection of unpublished letters from the climbing legend George Mallory to his family, revealing his innermost thoughts about people, places and mountains. 
On the 8th of June, 1924, George Mallory and Sandy Irvine were seen through a telescope on the upper slopes of Mount Everest. They were never seen alive again. In 1999, Mallory’s body was found below the ridge where he was last seen. In the 100 years since his disappearance, many words have been written about Mallory, but very little has ever been published of his own thoughts. 
Letters from Everest is an eye opening set of personal letters from Mallory to his family, collected and published for the first time by his great-nephew. In the letters, Mallory is completely open about his life, his climbing and especially the three Everest Expeditions he was a part of – 1921, 1922 and the last in 1924. His writing is full of extraordinary insights – most of which have never been published in any form. They are a unique collection – an actual reflection, possibly the one and only, of the thoughts of a climbing legend who walked into history a century ago. 
In this non-fiction biography, Mallory's letters reveal the raw and unfiltered thoughts of a man who dared to challenge nature. His experiences, his fears, his triumphs, all laid bare in this literary collection, make Letters from Everest a must-read for anyone fascinated by the world of mountaineering and exploration.
