Conclusion

Anderson, Ben

Abstract

In the conclusion, a short analysis of a founding myth of ‘British’ rock climbing—the ‘Munich Climb’ incident—demonstrates how far contests over the meanings of modernity continued to shape mountain leisure cultures into the twentieth century. It goes on to explore the implications of understanding outdoors leisure as a means through which mountaineers and ramblers could express their modernity, and how we might consider later movements of the twentieth century and beyond.
