Maple Canyon guides are here!
|
The very first Wolverine Press Maple Canyon guides have arrived--swing on by and pick up your copy today at IME! |
|
Also take into consideration that the comprehensive Maple guide, by Darren Knezek, will be out shortly... worth the wait from what I've seen of the two books. |
|
I have heard that Darren is coming out with a guide for Maple, AF and Rock canyon and other South areas in the Wasatch for years... I would love to have a date that those guides are going to be done? |
|
Darren posted a photo of the Maple book's cover on Facebook last week along with the caption "The End is Near...." |

(rumor has April-ish...what year, we're not quite sure...har har) |
|
Brian, you hit it on the head...I have been hearing about these guide books for years. It will be nice to have the new ones when they come out... |
|
Some more hear say to add... I called Darren about this about two weeks ago when I found out the Wolverine book was coming out, and he told me his was to follow about month later. So, let's plan on sometime this summer. |
|
Just saw this about Darren's guidebook: MapleCanyonClimbing.com |
|
Is there an Ipod, or better yet, Android app for either book? |
|
Also check out the Maple Canyon Rock Climbs Facebook page for info updates and corrections on the Wolverine Publishing guide |
|
Any confirmation of the rumors of an updated AF and/or Rock Canyon guide? |
|
As far as I know, Mike, Darren decided to focus on Maple for the time being--that is, this guidebook will only cover Maple and other venues in the Sanpete Valley. |
|
I'm confused, David... I think you may have missed the point, which a) had nothing to do with ebooks; and b) did not identify "locals" by geographic proximity to an area but by personal investment therein. |

Keep you're specualation to areas and people you actually know, not just visited or bumped into once or twice.I'd rather climb Maple choss any day, its for sure the best choss I have ever climbed. Thanks to those who invested the time&cash. |

David Sahalie, again you leave me confused. How you can consider "the dirtbags that spend the summer at maple" (your own words) "personally invested" in Maple Canyon climbing is beyond me. If your idea of personal investment is staying at the campground for a while, working some routes, possibly even putting in two or three a summer, then you have a lot to learn from the likes of Darren, who has put in a couple of decades of sweat and cash into Maple so "the dirtbags that spend the summer" there can have something to climb, and so can the rest of us who are there regularly all year round. If you keep making arguments about your imagined "local-ism" and faulty understanding of "investment," I'll keep reading them. But goddamn, man, let's see some reasoning in there too. |
|
Wait! So all that is needed to produce the long awaited quality guides is to "shoot something across the bow?" LOL |
|
boys, boys, boys, give it a rest, jeez. |
|
What do you mean, apross, I AM climbing right now brah. Just reading my ebook on my iphone and trolling MP while I hang on my sick proj. It's the future! |

Speaking of which: Maple Canyon Rock Climbs ebook version is now on Amazon. |
