i might have the gritstone guide by Adam G....Greg Barnes...wow, that goes way back...i remember Greg, but never knew he wrote a guide. if i find the gritstone guide, i would part with it...if i find it i'll let you know...i am in the process of sorting through bins of books and slides and gear dating to my days in carbondale circa 1973-76. if you want joe healy's article on Giant City in Climbing (mag) circa 1976, i have that too, and would part with it.

Hi Jim, If you can find it I'll take it. I would also be interested in the Giant city article. Shoot me a PM and let me know what you would like for the two of them. Would paypal be ok?

Thanks,
Nick-
