Excellent Mountain Skills Book - By: Mr. A. Heinzl, 04 Mar 2008 
This is just the book to have if you are into hillwalkingin the UK hills. The good old Langmuir book was just a little too long winded & complex & never managed to get anything out of.
However the Mountain Leader book or the green book has been my bible when preparing for my Mountain Leader. Whenever I forgot something from my training I just pulled this book out from my shelf & looked it up.
I advise anyone interestedin hillwalking to consider buying the Mountain Leader Handbook.
At last a replacement to Eric Langmuir's "Mountain Leadershi - By: , 10 Mar 2003 
At last a replacement to Eric Langmuir's "Mountain Leadership. Any one who uses the mountainsin the UK or leads groupsin the mountains needs to have read this book. It tailors very neatly with the Mountain Leaders Award syllabus, making it vital to any one doing there Mountain Leaders Award, BELA or WGA.
It does not assume you’re a mountaineering guru nor is it to basic & patronising.
All mountain users should be equipped with the knowledge to minimise perceived & real risk as well as deal with the resulting problems of travellingin a mountainous environment, & this book contains all the basic information you will need. It is easily & clearly explainedin simpler format than previous books & the navigation rivals Peter Cliffes “Mountain Navigation”, for its ease of understanding.
If you use the UK mountains; use this book.
