Al, I know, I only went to Joe English a couple of times in 1979, but was of the same feeling that there was no need to add any metal to enjoy the place.
Unfortunately I have never gone back due to access concerns, although I remember it fondly. Because we got a bit lost on the way there, I have an association between Joe English and Blondie's "Heart of Glass" blaring on the car radio.

We done got lucky! The Climber's Guide to UNH has now been uploaded! in case you forgot, here's the link http://www.mediafire.com/Basilisk613
It does come with a warning though:
"This guide will get you thrown in jail if you try any of the climbs but it's a great find for any climber in the state of NH or a past UNH Alum from the 70's to add to there collection of old guide books..."

I got a "guide" to Marlowe some where. Not a bad spot but I think it got chopped several years ago. The other area and i can't remember the name - had some good lines and a few bolts ?????? Went there with Joe Landry. A short 11+ roof , some steep sparsely bolted faces ???
Anyone have the "remote crags" guide ? I think by Tad Pfeffer, '70's

Hi John and all, Happy New Year. Someplace I have a copy of Tad's Obscure Crag Guide, but it comes with a very heavy "no copying" admonition---I had to swear numerous oaths to obey this restriction in order to obtain my precious copy!!! So, absent a dispensation from the authors, I won't be scanning my copy even if I knew how to do so. Sorry. Alan

HI again, I think you are thinking of the Swanzey crag south of Keene. I believe it is Hewes Hill, or something similar. Yes, I also have a "rough" guide to there someplace in my collection. I don't believe there are any copyright restrictions on that one, but still have the "don't know how to scan/no scanning equipment" issue. Alan
