Excerpt from The Climbs on Lliwedd Climbing clubs have two reasons for existence: to initiate acquaintance and perpetuate friendship among mountaineers, and to provide them with authoritative information as to where to go, what to do, and what not to do. Comparatively few years ago climbing clubs were still only a luxury. The pioneers were few in number, they could get their information direct from one another, and their own judgment was based upon a wide and gradual experience. Climbers are now as numerous as their rocks, and as scattered. Enterprise is their primary qualification, and rumour too often their only guide. For information they have to depend upon a vast mass of undigested detail and uncritical narration. To fulfil at least one portion of their responsibility, the Committee of the Climbers' Club have, therefore, undertaken the publication of a series of Pocket Climbers' Guides, commencing with the mountains of North Wales.
