So Levi, to me this seemed like a nice way of asking for beta. I'm curious, is that all it took? Did you get what you were looking for?
I'm not asking that you publish your newfound beta by any means, i just hope that "asking nicely" is all it took, that hopefully somebody contacted you via private message, email, Facebook chat, or secret handshake around the coveted campfire.
If you did get what you were looking for, it's a proven point that bogley is THE PLACE to pose the question, and the answers will come through various channels.
If you didn't get any info and are hearing crickets in private, then this disproves the point made at least 3X in this thread that all you have to do is ask nicely.
I hope you get the info you are looking for, and this is not a request to publish that data, but only to see what the result was.
Thanks and good luck.

So if he isn't 100% correct he shouldn't even speak? If Levi would have geared up and hit those canyons by Bobs first post alone, that would have been bad news. But the dude was obviously trying to help. Hell, you can't blame him for being under the impression that nobody else was communicating with Levi in private. He at least helped build the conversation on where this canyon could be. True it seemed to get a little out of hand but Bob was right there up front trying to offer some assistance, even if he didn't zero in on the canyon.
I would make a friendly suggestion that if anybody asks a question online and isn't getting a public answer, but in reality is getting plenty of help sideband, to make a quick post saying "PM sent". This would prevent a lot of people from thinking the poor dude just isn't getting any help and that the people who have the beta are just a bunch of dicks. LOL. ...which was not the case at all and it's great that you guys could help him out. Although I'm not a canyoneer and hence pretty neutral on the SDT issue, it would help the SDT side build some friendly PR
:D

Re: beta for sad cow disease ?
I would like to take this opportunity to personally thank the leaders of the show-don't-tell crew for providing me 10 plus years of new canyons to target and helping sell countless climb-utah memberships. I probably get more publicity from your canyons than the ones I dig up on my own, after all, everyone loves learning a secret.
Best I can tell it has been over ten years since we parted ways and I walked away from the secret decoder rings. I still remember your parting words "you will never receive beta on anther canyon"... if only it had been true, but your insistence on grasping desperately to a fatality flawed system and your inability to adapt dooms you to eventual failure. Time is always on my side. Thanks for teaching me patients, which is a valuable asset I severely lacked in my youth.
Best of all I have received numerous hours of personal entertainment tracking down YOUR slots and the enjoyment I receive from betaing them is priceless. Childish and petty perhaps, but you play your games and I play mine, it's just the games we play.
I know we are getting a little long in the tooth, but here is to anther fabulous 10 years of cat and mouse...
Anyhoo... sorry for rambling... Sad Cow, coming to your favorite website in the near future... enjoy and thanks again.
