Baggy & Culm

Published 15 June 2021
It's been almost 20 years since the last definitive guide to the North Devon coast and surrounding area. Since then, there has been a significant development in the number of new, lower grade (S - HVS) venues, the country's first E11 (quickly downgraded to E9) was climbed and there's been an explosion in bouldering in the area including, possibly, the world's hardest crack problem. This new guide seeks to document these developments with detailed photo-topos and some fine action shots - the best boulder problems in the area are also included.

Extensively researched by local activists with many years of rock-climbing experience in the region - Lead author Mark Kemball has been climbing in the area since the late 80s.
