I've still got my copy of first edition,,never heard of a completed II version....A few pages of original were shown and mentioned in the DLFA movie. (And a big thanks for whoever connected us up to watch that movie, early on Saturday evening at the Craggin Classic event !) My hair and bandana appearance of that era had many friends convinced I was the cover pic for the EX'Guide. I'd be honored to make that claim if I could. Will scan up some and post it in guidebook entry later this week.

Zzzzz,,,,and 8 years later we get a nice book, different author than first effort mentioned back in 2008, and with sweet color pics. Nice to roll back to start of this thread and see how it went dead for like 4 years until the good news got out of a REAL guidebook finally in print and now we have it. Thanks Jay!

Yes, would be great to see pages of it posted up here to MP if someone has it to scan. Never knew a volume 2 was done, or even in the works at any point.

Well sadly I have the disk that the Extremists 2 was being made on, but the data is not recoverable. Tried PC x3, Mac, and a professional data recovery company who were also unable to open the disk. If Alex has a paper copy that's the only one.

LOL,,,I remember some early computer techie movies, where the answer to save the plantet was all on a crapped out little floppy like that which had to be saved from the bad guys. And now, the fate of the Extremists Guide 2 is left in the hands of the ultimate computer nerd. Anybody know some guys from the NSA or a cyberterror specialist? I bet the have the goods to crack that disc open and fine our guide book !!!

An FYI, the new Minnesota/Wisconsin bouldering guidebook is also now available at local retailers and gyms including Wildside in Baraboo, or here:

I saw this at Ad Rock the other evening, thank you to whoever put this book together! Sometimes the MP descriptions of bouldering areas at DL are a little cryptic, it will be great to have this for the spring.

It's hard cuz you hit the ground hard, endlessly, all day long. That's the intent of bouldering.  Falling numerous times, hitting hard.  Alot.   I don't heal up well anymore to sprains and breaks.

Guideline #1: Don't be a jerk.
