Good thought, however it is a select guide, so we're hoping to filter most of the utter crap out altogether. It sort of seems that if most routes in a select guide are given a star just for being in the book, you've accidently reverted to a two-star system.

I'm pretty set on pinching Rob's cobweb symbol, as there are tons of worthwhile routes around canberra which have been recolonized by the moss. They aren't climbable at present, but if they get brushed they'd be worth a star.......if we leave them out of the book it kind of dooms them to be forgotten.
