Topher Dagg and Sebastien Rider have climbed extensively in Scotland and further afield. Whilst both climbing and developing sport crags in Scotland, the authors realised the need for a Scottish sport climbing guide. Their aim for a modern guide was not simply to document the country's sport routes, but also highlight Scotland's spectacular countryside and create a fun guide that would appeal to both established climbers and those entering the sport.
