During the winter months, and when the skies are clear, the area can be surprisingly warm and comfortable for climbing when other parts of the country might be considered out of the question. The location is further enhanced by the beauty of its setting within the serene Dorset countryside; whether for climbing, enjoying one of its many fine walks, or just exploring the coves and old quarries, it is an area that is a pleasure to visit time and time again..* This is a NEAR VG reprint copy of the 5th. revised edition with minimal shelf & reading wear.*
