Hi,

This book is fairly new, I am thinking of purchasing it.

Has anybody used it, is it any good??

Cheers.

yes excellent
not sure whats updated from first edition but highly recommend all of the Vertibrae Graphics books, they are all top quality
I have the book and CD for the White and Dark peak ones, CD very handy to print out pdf's rather than taking book out with you and getting it ruined
If you go on Vertibrae graphics website should be some downloadable pdf versions of selected routess from all their books (used to be anyway)

I've got the old one, the new one has better, more up to date pics and considerably better mapping (worth it for that alone IMO).

Great books and the layout makes it quite easy for you to build your own routes by combining /chopping and changing the suggested routes.
