when the book project was at Mountaineers Books, Sean sent in a set of photographs to the editor separately from all the others (hundreds) that we had gathered from the ice climbing community over the last few years. His express wish was that they were to be considered for the cover only. This is why there are no other photos from Sean in the guide.

 

and you could never talk to them? this sounds like there is an interesting story or head butting behind it all - dish!

No headbutting. We just didn't know about the route until it was too late to add. There are actually about a half dozen routes that this happened with. Rest assured we will get the info and post it on the Washington Ice website that we are putting togther for current info and updates.

Alex and Jason did a first class job on the guide and definitely did their homework.

 

I wonder how they got Jeff Renner to talk about what makes good ice conditons? I know Jeff has done some climbing-- perhaps a cc'er has tied in with him.

 

Ps. Tom Brokaw and the Pope are or "were" also climbers.
