A Youth Wasted Climbing
Author: David Chaundy-Smart

ISBN: 1771600675
Category : Sports & Recreation
Languages : en
Pages : 264
Book Description
Shortlisted for the 2015 Banff Mountain Film and Book Festival award for Mountain & Wilderness Literature. David Chaundy-Smart took it as a compliment when his high school vice-principal told him he was wasting his youth by climbing. Here, he tells the story of how he and his brother, Reg, spent the last years of the 1970s fighting suburban boredom to become, in the words of renowned climbing historian Chic Scott, "one of the leading figures in Ontario rock climbing throughout the 1980s." With its vivid accounts of short and nasty climbs, dubious mentors, hapless climbing partners, teenage crushes, bad cars, underage drinking and questionable climbing techniques, this is a memoir of coming of age in a simpler era of climbing, told with compassion, humour and insight.
