1996 9th October 2025 08:26:15 duncancritchley climber Royal Robbins notes
Before
Royal Robbins was an extremely influential climber from the USA in the late 1950s and 1960s. He was part of a generation of climbers who established Yosemite as a world class climbing destination and made first ascents and repeats of many now-famous routes there. Robbins was also very influential in terms of the climbing style and ethics he espoused. Many of the values he championed, such as minimising reliance on fixed ropes, minimising the use of bolts and climbing from the ground up remain core to what is considered good style in modern big wall climbing. After visiting the UK and seeing and using nuts and chockstones used for protection Robbins, together with [Yvon Chouinard](/climber/1049/yvon-chouinard), Robbins became an early proponent of 'clean climbing': the use of chocks over pitons as a means of minimising damage to the rock. In later life Robbins struggled with arthritis in his hands which made climbing difficult. Because of this Robbins focused his energy on his business ventures and, later, on white water kayaking. He made first descents of several rivers in the US and further abroad. ### References [1] [https://www.instagram.com/p/CU4qXc5J8i7/](https://www.instagram.com/p/CU4qXc5J8i7/) [2] [https://www.facebook.com/photo/?fbid=6849687261751921&set=a.126453404075374](https://www.facebook.com/photo/?fbid=6849687261751921&set=a.126453404075374) [3] Smart, D. (2023). Royal Robbins: The American Climber. United States: Mountaineers Books.

<p>Royal Robbins was an extremely influential climber from the USA in the late 1950s and 1960s. He was part of a generation of climbers who established Yosemite as a world class climbing destination and made first ascents and repeats of many now-famous routes there.</p> <p>Robbins was also very influential in terms of the climbing style and ethics he espoused. Many of the values he championed, such as minimising reliance on fixed ropes, minimising the use of bolts and climbing from the ground up remain core to what is considered good style in modern big wall climbing.
