Canyons Cantalous
OverviewCanyons Cantalous
author: Philippe VIETTE-COSTE
Language: French
This topoguide is a partial re-release of the "Cantal" guide "Canyons Arvernes", published in 2012, soon sold out after the release. This topoguide therefore only presents the canyons of this zone, in a corrected and improved edition. It is no less than 50 trips with an unpublished number, of which 33 are provided with a detailed description. With 22 situation diagrams you can find your way to the run / return, while 6 situation diagrams make it possible to place the canyons in between.
The book, in handy format, is completely in color, accompanied by many photos, each with a description, an accurate profile and very readable. There is also a synthetic but comprehensive description of hydrology, geology, involvement, access, run-up, origin, return and history for each trip.
A summary table with the most important technical characteristics (duration, length, ropes required, many obstacles, options ...) gives a good overview.
