The first cover was the best. I have the full set. In fact I have 2 of the 2017 one...But not for sale.

That old one is pretty useless.  Things have changed so much!   Imagine No Money Down as a "mixed" (gear) route.

Before the 2009 edition came out, the original was out of print and copies were selling for $100 on eBay. 

In 2008 when we still had and used our prized first edition and others couldn’t find one to buy people would say “Wow you have the book“.   Now they look at us in puzzlement as they search on their phones, and say “wow, you are using a book”

So things have changed in many ways!

Hah, yeah so true!   It's crazy how phones have changed the landscape.  I do like physical guidebooks.   They're nice when it comes to the overall layout of the climbing area.   As in, the relationship and paths between spots.  Online info struggles to provide this visual type of info.

Full set? Perhaps not so much :-)

That's my (now) wife on the cover!  I think that I only have one of those myself.

Ooh......I did not know about that one! Nice cover as well. 

1996 I believe.
