What is SuperTopo? Our mission at SuperTopo is to create the world's best climbing guidebooks. Here's our story... In 1999, I decided to start SuperTopo as a result of a need and a surprise. The need was for up-to-date, accurate topos. When I climb I am often frustrated by the lack of good beta available. Personally, I want good information so that I can focus on the climbing, not on whether I am off route. So, I created the SuperTopos, the most detailed and informative climbing topos ever published. Look for four key SuperTopo features: Climbing route history and story telling Detailed topo: pitch lengths, gear sizes, beta, beta, beta Strategy, retreat, and storm information for each route Detailed approach and descent maps My surprise was finding how much the climbing experience is enhanced by hearing the rich history of first ascents. When you read about a first ascent done with minimal equipment in epic conditions by one of your heroes such as John Muir or Yvon Chouinard, the climb takes on a whole new light. The climb becomes an experience of walking in the footsteps of a legend. SuperTopo.com is designed to be a resource to help you plan a climbing itinerary, as well as get the best topos available for those climbs. We currently include detailed info on over 380 of Yosemite's best big wall and free climbs —including photos, stats, links for related sites, and user submitted beta with the latest info. Be sure to download one of our free SuperTopos guidebook examples. I hope you'll find our topos the most detailed and helpful you've ever used. — Chris McNamara, founder of SuperTopo
