A Crag Guide gives an extensive view of all sub areas and climbs at a point in the index. It shows a snapshot of the index heirachy, up to 300 climbs (or areas) on a single web page. It shows selected comments climbers have made on a recently submitted ascent.
At a minor crag level this should be suitable for printing and taking with you on a climbing trip as an adjunct to your guidebook.

Use chalk with caution and brush it off afterwards (including huge tick marks).
Chalk should only be used on hands, never directly on the rock!
Clean the bottom of your climbing shoes removing all sand and dirt before any climb. This is essential to limit rock erosion.
DONT CLIMB ON WET ROCK!!!!
Night climbing is prohibited to reduce the impact on the animal habitat.
Dont use the base of the routes as your toilet. Go into the forest a little further off the track or out of the area for a 1 and dig a hole for a 2.
