I just picked it up at Bentgate tonight. Wow, this thing is incredible! This sets the bar high for future books and will most likely never be topped. Steve, this is a Masterpiece!

Just received it in the mail tonight. Superb!

Thanks Steve for this labor of love.

Looks like I better head over the BG tomorrow and pick up a copy...

It's my birthday next week so I don't even need an excuse!

So sick! I can't even imagine the amount of work that went into this.

Got my copy in the mail yesterday. I think this is the best guidebook I have ever seen. Fantastic!!! Thank you Steve!

Just picked mine up last night. Well done.

Now, I bought mine at the bent gate so I wasn't able to get the e-guide which I would very much like to have for printing off topos etc. I am wondering if someone can help me out with getting one of these. I downloaded a file off the sharp end website and apparently you need a code to unlock it.

Please PM me if you can help me out.

This book is way to nice to throw in my pack for a day of craggn'. Absolutely love all the history of Eldo. One of my favorite pics so far is the climber on Foxtrot. Incredible shot! Also, like the pic of Briggs on an early attempt of Wendego, I never realized how "chalk-free" that route was compared to now.

So I ordered mine during the special deal that included an e-book and got some money to ACE, but I haven't received my hard-copy yet. Anyone else in this boat or know when I can expect it?

Kevin, I ordered early too and received it two days ago. I suspect yours in the mail.

That's a good point, I picked one up at BRC the other night (AWESOME guide, btw), but it would be good to be able to print off the route info. Maybe someone could just post here if you know a way to get access to the e-book if you only have a hard copy, so the question is answered for anyone else too. Thanks!

I pre-ordered and received the link for downloading the e-version, the software for opening it and the unlock code via email. If anything, I think you need to request these from sharp end if you bought the book in a store. Potentially a can of worms for them if there is no tracking system for store purchases and control of unlock codes
