Climbing guide for the Yorkshire Dales

+1
−0

Can anybody reccommend a climbing guide for the Yorkshire Dales area? I'm off for a weekend trip there in a couple of months but I'm having difficulty finding a guide for the area. Roughly the Askrigg region

Preferably this will include somewhere I can easily set up some top ropes on easy routes as I'm taking some inexperienced friends.

Barring a book, any recommendation's for crags that fit the bill, above?

After a good trawl though my local outdoors shop I came across this book:

enter image description here Yorkshire gritstone.

It covers an area called slipstones, which appears to be the nearest significant crag.

Another guide book option for you might be the BMC sport climbing guide.

Maybe the ROCKFAX? http://www.rockfax.com/climbing-guides/books/northern-england-2008/

By the way, this is a great site for finding info on crags in a given area: http://www.ukclimbing.com/logbook/map/ - once you find a crag it also lists relevant guidebooks.
