How is a SuperTopo different than a traditional topo?
Traditional climbing topos usually cover many, many routes in a climbing area, but offer very limited depth of information on any individual route. In contrast, a SuperTopo, whether in downloadable-format off this website (eBook) or in our printed SuperTopo guidebooks, offers a depth of detailed information on a select list of the very best climbs in an area. It takes us more time to create a SuperTopo, and we offer fewer routes than a traditional guidebook, but we are committed to assuring that the SuperTopo will be the very best, most detailed, and most accurate topo available for each route we cover. The chart below highlights some of the major differences between a SuperTopo and a traditional guidebook topo.
