New Frenchman Coulee (Vantage) guidebook? Anyone hear anything about when there will be a new edition?

The most recent Marlene Ford and Jim Yoder guidebook is from 2008.

The Marc Dilley Select guide (pdf) is from a few years after.

Last time I was there a few months ago it looked like there were several new climbs on and around Satan's Pillar.

A few years ago I heard that the next edition of the guidebook is at least a few years away.

Has anyone heard anything about when we could see a new edition?

Yeah its called mountainproject! Wasn't perfect but it got us climbing on stuff that wasn't in our guidebooks.

Saw a sample page, supposed to be this year.

There were new climbs that also are not on Mountain Project.

New book out by this Fall.. Over 100+ new routes listed.. We put a lot of time & money into that place last year, many new routes at Zig-Zag and near.. Jim Yoder and Brenden Sullivan are authoring. Full color, new format.

There it is

Glad to see it is the works!

AWESOME!!!

Thanks for filling us in!

And, above all, thanks for all the time, money, and and work you guys have put into the place!

I can't wait to get my hands on it once it is released.

I wonder if Jim Yoder will work on a new edition of the Tieton River Canyon Guidebook next?...?

Is the Frenchman Coulee / Vantage book available yet? And, where can one get it?

Less than 5 weeks of fall left....

Is there an updated ETA yet?

I'm itching to get my hands on it!

Any news if the new guide book was released. Planning a march trip.

Any word on the new edition?

Bump

One pretty good strategy is just to look up at the route and decide if you can make it, then try not to hangdog.  It is fun to know the names (to area 143) and play the numbers game though.

There is currently one in the works.  Should be here before summer.  Contact me if you'd like more details.

Any update?

it’s quite helpful since all the routes look the same and even after climbing a lot there i still get a little turned around

Frenchman Coulee by Brendan Sullivan and Jim Yoder came out about a year ago.  Fine new guide:  lots of colorful photos, good locator satellite photos, a number of new crags.
Let's use it to spread ourselves around and not coronavirus....

The new Vantage guide book is one of the best I've seen. Big thank you to the authors and publishers!
