Work is well underway on an update to the old 2004 Hong Kong Bouldering guidebook, with Stuart Millis, Terry Chan and Jack Lin all plugging away to bring you refined details on the latest and greatest additions to bouldering in the HKSAR (and Karen Chan and Tony Cheung helping provide some breathtaking imagery).
For a few teasers of what’s in store, check out some of the working drafts for classic areas here:
We don’t have a fixed timeline for publication just yet as there’s still a whole host of new areas to fully document (see tentative area list below), but early 2021 would be nice…
