Ho's climbed this route? It's a classic and offers a challenging approach pitch to gain access to the Albatross, a roofy formation above the second alcove. Worth it.

I've climbed it, but I did not fornicate.
That laser thin crack is pretty sweet, makes from some technical moves.
Not done any of the upper areas though, I'll have to amend that sometime.

Definite classic imo. Props to Tiesla and Kennedy! I'd love to see an annotated version of the Wood Hood topo (not sure what is what on the current MP version).

I second that, the topo really only gives anchors/bolts above and beyond what you can see if you are there looking at the formation. Although, I understand the tease factor involving future guidebook release ;).
Is there any ETA on the guidebook, or is too preliminary to say?

Ok. The book's narratives have been edited to near completion... a few details to be filled in on logistic issues. Topos and bete photos are being cleaned up with text added and paged out asI type this.I finally found a graphic designer that I can afford.
Last autumns attempt at completion failed when I handed over my narratives to a flake, after calling him dozens of times... no answer or call back, Sasha had to go on his Facebook acct and talk some sh%t. She requested my flash drive back... nothing was returned. If I thought he had any real way of using the information he stole from me I would be concerned. Fortunately I didn't pay him anything, but the money I took out of savings I spent over the winter. I finally got some money to pay a real professional to get this thing done. I apologize for the delay, and Am trying my best to get this book out. D.K.

Nice to hear things are moving along. How many copies are you projecting to print? What is the approximate cost of the book? Are you accepting pre-orders? Will there be a book release party???

Not to detract, but the name is a lot better than the "classic" looks.
Another slab crack with a witty name.
