E98: Greg Chapman - Guidebook writing, boulder development, crag preservation and The Lake District
Manage episode 419535348 series 3442944
The author of the Lake District (Aidan's home area) boulder guide, Greg Chapman joins us this week. We have a wide ranging discussion covering lots of things that relate to the writing of guidebooks and developing boulders. This episode is a little more esoteric than most as a lot of the conversations pertain to the Lake District but I think it mostly all carries over to any other boulder area as well so there's something for everyone I hope!
Greg's lesser known Lake District gems that are worth seeking out:-
- Rolling Rock Wall (5+) Rolling Rock (page 464)
- Book of the Ages (6A) Coniston Copermines (page 212)
- Millenium Star (6C) Eskdale Granite (page 332)
- Scallop (7A) Armathwaite (page 545)
- The Giant Peach 7A+/B Horsehow Crags (page 299)
- Impailed (7B) Dove Crag (page 548)
- The Grinding Mind (7B+) Ennerdale (page 404)
- Diamond Reign (7B+) Eskdale Granite (page 318)
- Out of the Blue (7C+) St. Bees Head (page 418)
- Iron Hide (8A) St. Bees (page 461)
