1.0 out of 5 stars Don't buy this book, March 21, 2000

This series of books have got me lost more times that I care to recall. I topos are confussing and since Colorado has seen a lot of new routes the books are out of date. They are helpful for finding areas but after that you are on your own. Buy the Benningfield book instead

5.0 out of 5 stars Books With True Character, March 26, 2000

The Colorado Front Range Bouldering Series is the first of its kind in the world, maps are hand drawn and incredibly entertaining unlike the simple processed digitized guides seen today. The book has accurracy and overviews of all areas involved unlike the Copy Cat book Colorado Bouldering. This book is the best value on the market for bouldering within the Fort Collins Area. I truely enjoy having it in my almost 500 climbing guide collection. In years to come these hand drawn books will be of more value than the others that follow.

Bob Horan's guide books are funky and original. He has been a dedicated Front Range boulderer for many years and he's taken the time to visit these areas repeatedly with different partners to insure accuracy of grading, problem description, etc. I'd like to see him change what he calls "Meditation Boulder" at Rotary Park back to its original name (Biscuit Rock) but other than that, he's done a fine job.
