Does grey scale not count as full color?!?!

So this will be a work in the fantasy genre?

Oh, wait, I'm forgetting "Mammalary Magic"

Bolted sandstone locations will make it into the guide they say.

Does this guide have pictures of where to place anchors for the top rope routes?

Like where the .4 X4 goes on the top of Brinton's?

This is all fine and well but Ian promised me a bouldering guide too. What gives?!

Both guidebooks (route and boulder) are in the layout stage.

Do not believe a word I am saying as this is rumor and conjecture, and likely 99% false. But that's the rumor.

I assume the sport climbing is nearby microcrags like Necedah...there aren't secret bolt's at DL, are there? Lol

I declare that these guidebooks are a fraud! Surely a small insignificant area like "Devils Lake" would not take 3+ years to complete a so-called "guide book". The authors of these books are obviously swashbuckling crooks who only intention is to use their "research" to un-earth high quality FA's for themselves and themselves only.

I DEMAND REFUND OF MY KICKSTARTER PLEDGES AND RETURN OF MY COPYRIGHTED MATERIAL!!!!

You had a kickstarter pledge? I didn't even know there was one started!

So right now there are two bouldering guides coming out and one rope guide in the works as well.

Bets on which one lands first?
If all three actually get printed?

I'll bet 10 bucks that all three don't get printed within the year, and 10 bucks that the rope guide will be out first.

Guideline #1: Don't be a jerk.
