Anyone know where I can get a copy of Marty Bland's book? I found "Rock Climbs of Central Washington" on Mgear.com and am planning on ordering once I look into my finances and buy some food. Thanks for all the help, and does anyone know for sure if areas of the Potholes have been closed to climbing? One post said that it may be the case, anyway, thanks.

Cool, thanks for the help. I'm gonna try to find that book

Has anyone climbed at The Potholes area south of Moses Lake? Although the routes look short, it looks like a decent place for me to practice trad climbing which I am just getting into. According to Rock Climbing Washington it appears to have quite a few climbs rated 5.7 and under that I could practice placing gear and making anchors on while not having to struggle too much with the climbing aspects. I cant find any info on the area over the internet though, is it closed to climbing now or what? Any info would be much appreciated. I recently moved to Bellingham but am going to school in Pullman during fall through spring. Any other suggestions for easier climbing with minimal crowds in Eastern WA? Thanks.
