Can't find a copy of this book anywhere? Does anyone have one sitting around they aren't using? Or has anyone seen one in a local shop?

If its Index your looking for here something free, albeit dated as heck.

Old Index guide.

Sky Valley and more

I'm aware of the alternative options (Clint's Index guide and a few websites). What I'm trying to avoid is what Keenwish pointed out...

Anyone else have an idea?

keep watching amazon. every once and a while an affordable one pops up. I got a copy a few months ago for less that $50.

you might also contact those sellers and counteroffer. those prices are ridiculous - no climber would pay that (I don't think).

climbing at index is kinda fun without a guidebook. you can bum info from other people about certain walls, head up to them, and climb whatever looks good. after a season or two you'll have your own guidebook in your head.

I've got a copy. Say $100 bones? Thats apparently cheap!

[DCramer]

The only guidebook worth $100 is Private Dancer. I've been insanely busy lately (as in the the last year or so) but I do have guidebooks still available. I'd like to work something out so the WCC rather than me gets any profits. Details to follow.

 

That said a new improved guide book is in the works. The intent is to use it to fund on going Index expenses. (ie gear upgrade, toilet pumping) It won't be ready this year for sure.

We just acquired 15 copies of Sky Valley Rock at Edgeworks Climbing Gym in Tacoma. We are selling them for $20 and all proceeds benefit the WCC(Washington Climbers Coalition). First come first serve! Sorry if this undercuts folks making $$$ on some books. But for a good cause...
