I was wondering what locals see as the impact of Bloom's book at the Creek. Has there been a dramatic increase in numbers? How about the movie on Indian Creek cracks? Thanks

I mean no disrespect- but you're beating a dead horse here.

I was thinking as I looked over that book at the store that it might actually scare good natured hippy climbers away from the place. After looking at the photographs of the huge parties that seem a norm there I can't imagine visiting the place. What really got my goat was the photo of wee Timmy banging on a drum. Is he scared of coyotes? Wow a real desert experience.

Yes the guide book has and will make an impact.

And for that we all owe the good doctor our gratitude.
