1.0 out of 5 stars Inexcusable errors., December 26, 2008
By andrew "Andrew" (Berthoud CO) - See all my reviews
This book is everything you don't want in a guidebook, especially at 50 dollars retail! Directions are often vague or wrong, and many boulders and problems are misnamed and misgraded. I would guess the number of problems and areas with incorrect descriptions is in the hundreds. Don't waste your money.

1.0 out of 5 stars Rather drab, November 8, 2008
By Nathanael Peach (Fort Collins, CO) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
If you could I would give this book 0 stars. I've flipped through it and would suggest saving your money. Directions to the bolders are confusing if not downright wrong. Also, problem names and ratings are extremely inaccurate. If you familiar with the areas it's a bit of a laugh if not the book is mostly worthless.

1.0 out of 5 stars Save your money, October 2, 2008
I, too, warn you that this book is full of errors and also lists climbing areas that are on private property. Please save your money and get more accurate information elsewhere.
