In reply to Mick Ryan - UKClimbing.com: Well I put it to you good sir you cannot, in fact, download it at all!

In reply to Smitz:

In reply to Dave Flanagan:

awesome.

In reply to Dave Flanagan:

Nice job! Have to try some stuff when i get back this year. However, as an antrim native i am a little concerned about the annexation of fairhead by county down.

In reply to wilding:

It gets worse down here in the Republic. Commuters are busy annexing Louth, Meath, Kildare, Wicklow and others as 'Greater Dublin'... In fact, I've heard that only Kerry, Clare, Mayo, Sligo and Donegal are likely to fall outside the adjusted county boundaries.

In reply to Mick Ryan - UKClimbing.com:

One of the most interesting things about this guide is that it is (again) a free download, despite the obviously substantial work that has gone into it. A shame you didn't highlight that more in your news item. This is obviously the future of climbing guides - see also http://www.mountainproject.com/ in the US. Why is there nothing similar in the UK?

Thought I'd leave that to someone else.

Also see Greg Chapman's website for another great example of a free guide.

You clearly haven't been looking at wiki.scottishclimbs.com

Loads of free guide for all aspects of climbing in scotland

In reply to andyb.com:

No I haven't. That's interesting. I am looking forward to the day when someone gets a serious wiki-type guide going for one of the CC's strongholds: Pembroke for instance.

In reply to tobyfk:

You wish to hasten the death of the great British Guidebook System?

Have you no shame young man?

Imagine all the self-important bleating about copyright and the loss of 'definitive' information. You know you'd love it too.
