This is the essential guide to over 1000 routes surrounding Big Bear Lake in California's San Bernardino Mountains.  The best-known climbing area here is the famed Holcomb Valley Pinnacles, super-popular for its dense concentration of steep, well-featured, granite sport climbs.  The Pinnacles are covered in full detail, along with complete beta for scores of crags well off the beaten path.  Moderate sport climbs may have put Big Bear on the map, but there is something perfect here for everyone, from easy slabs to remote pinnacles, to technical slab and trad cracks of all kinds.  The pine-covered hills, quaint mountain town, and expansive lake offer an abundance of excellent camping and a large variety of rest-day fun.  With never-before-published crags, extensive maps, and new routes for every skill level, this full-color, comprehensive guidebook promises years of climbing adventures in LA's backyard.
