Produktbeschreibung

Boulder Field Navigation is an essential guide for anyone venturing into mountainous terrain, focusing on the unique challenges and safety protocols needed to navigate unstable rock fields.
The book emphasizes understanding the mechanics of these environments, teaching effective movement techniques, and implementing risk management strategies.
One intriguing aspect explored is how seemingly stable boulder fields are perpetually on the verge of collapse due to factors like erosion and seismic activity.
The book details geological processes, biomechanics, and risk management, providing a comprehensive understanding of boulder field dynamics.
Chapters progress from introducing key geological concepts such as the angle of repose to practical movement techniques tailored to varying boulder sizes and slopes.
Hazard assessment is covered in detail, teaching readers to identify potential rockfall zones and unstable boulders.
What sets Boulder Field Navigation apart is its combination of scientific rigor and field-tested techniques.
It offers specific guidance beyond general hiking advice, making it a valuable resource for hikers, climbers, search and rescue teams, and scientific crews, enhancing their safety and efficiency in these challenging environments.
