Title: New Guide?
Post by: Runout on March 15, 2021, 05:12:56 PM: I've heard rumors of a new Young guide. Is this true?

Post by: mungeclimber on March 15, 2021, 05:32:06 PM: I guarantee it! Even though I can offer no proof. :o

Post by: Brad Young on March 15, 2021, 05:47:26 PM: Yes. The field work is 80% done now.

You may not be able to use it once it comes out though. I’m estimating 10% larger than the Sonora Pass book. Will you be strong enough to pick it up? 😉

Post by: Zay on March 17, 2021, 03:16:54 AM: 80 percent, Brad???

With how much of your heart and soul you pour into that choss pile, 80 percent could mean "just a few more years!!!" Haha.

But seriously, I am looking forward to it :)

Slackers!

What's up with those guys that are making the select guidebook?

Talked to that guy years ago at Discovery Wall and he showed me some rough draft stuff - mostly photo topos.
Never saw or heard anything again. Not sure anything ever got published and no idea what his name was.

Post by: F4? on April 23, 2021, 05:22:33 PM: I use the blue guide. Better ratings.

A new guide, I am happy to sign for you Adam if and when it comes out.

Post by: mungeclimber on April 27, 2021, 02:22:47 PM: A select was just a matter of time. Unfortunately it will only clog the existing clogged areas. And overly saturate the newly classic lines ahead of their time.

Post by: F4? on April 27, 2021, 02:40:52 PM: Seems like a slippery slope these select guides.

New guide needs to have Piglet Pinnacle up rated to 5.9.

The block that made it 5.8 is in the bushes.

Unless Klink has some construction glue and we can glue the chunk back.

Post by: clink on April 28, 2021, 04:45:00 PM: My select guide/coloring book to Pinnacles Climbs will have the corrected ratings and an extra flesh crayon for coloring the pages featuring the current guidebook author wearing his extremely short, shorts.
