Riggins, ID Limestone - Guidebook?

[S1W]

Taking a whirlwind trip to Idaho next weekend and will be near Riggins - heard about some limestone climbing there but can't find very detailed information online.

 

Does anyone in the Seattle area have a copy of the guidebook that you wouldn't mind lending out for the weekend? Or know if it is sold anywhere in Riggins?

 

Thanks!

Bring your power drill and chisle tips and make what ever route you want! Thats all the beta you need!

Despite what the donkey says, there are many routes in Riggins that were not manufactured some as easy as 5.9, others projects well past 14c. IMO Tractor boy the manufactured route in question is an improbable and impressive line that was "altered" from 5.17 to a mere mortal 13b, with some pretty rad moves. Also swing by Hells canyon while you're in the hood for a plethora of moderate climbs on bullet limestone.

 

And yeah, I've got a book you can borrow, and I live in Seattle.

I would definitely stop in at Hell's. That place is amazing! Here's an old TR I did-

I have that 48 page guidebook to Riggins pictured in the linky. boiseclimbs.com tells you where you can buy it.
