In this book there is something for everyone - from absolute beginners to experienced Alpinists. As well as being described in a very professional and yet not too serious manner, Lutz has even incorporated a section which is devoted to the equipment and how it is used.
It is obvious that the author is not only adept as a writer, but he is also a very experienced Alpinist. His books on Ski-Touring and Canooing-Tours are also very good value for money.
