Gramps guide.......is it true? 28-Aug-2009 At 9:55:33 PM La_Chump

Personally I am eager to peruse a complete guide by people who have specifically taken it upon themselves to travel to the gramps, putting in the hard yards photographing, walking, scouting and detailing specific boulder problems and areas, I take my hat off to them, they will likely make a financial loss in the production of this epic without support from us, the people who will most benefit from a comprehensive guide.

It might be worth adding, for those who may not be so well versed, that the website that is being so vigorously endorsed by Niel was in fact created by him. Kudos for the effort but why slander others who are attempting a similar feat?

It's all well and good to self promote an incomplete topo website, with incomplete and obscure information, however I assume the guide these guys are producing is complete and for the masses from the "1600 chossy problems" to the five star classics.

Furthermore, I might just add that progress is created through the generation of multiple thoughts from multiple minds, not just a singular focal point with an acronym. Support should be loud and positive for anyone who takes it upon themselves to document bouldering/climbing for the general populace and professionals alike.

I say it behooves us all to get our hands on a copy of this guide and possibly someone might be kind enough to purchase a copy for Neil so he can see what dedication to climbing really means...
