New Moab Canyoneering Book
That's part1.
Part two is to download locklizard, which was included in that email. Once it's downloaded, install it, and open the program and have it open that license file (which was in your email).
Part 3 is to go here - http://sharpendbooks.homestead.com/digitalmedia.html and download the book.
Sure anyone can download the book but it's not going to work without that license file which was in your email.
That will be $100 for my I.T. fee. I take cash...or.....a years worth of chevron gas ;) ;) ;) ;)●Canyoneering 'Canyon Conditions' @ www.candition.com

I had to download the book to my computer and then email it to myself because the mobile version of sharp end wouldn't let me download it. I'm not sure what's in the zip file as I never received one of those.
Tap'n on my smart phone.

Has anyone heard if hard copies of this book are available yet? The thread mentions that it ships in mid-October...

Just got an update from Sharp End. There was a significant printing problem with the first batch, so they rejected them, and it will be a bit more time before the first printed copies will be available.

I got a book in the mail yesterday. Noticed an error pool arch is 170' not 130' for rap one just a heads up. That was just thumbing though it, haven't sat down to read it yet.....

Despite some printing issues, everyone who per-ordered a book should have received their copy. With that in mind, I gave up my initial copy to fulfill those orders; I am still waiting on mine. Hopefully the book looks good!
Granted not everything is 100% perfect ( I don't think any guide book is), I think overall there should be few errors. The beta was checked by locals and tested by friends. With high certainty, I'm sure that rappel in Pool Arch is not 170 feet.Last edited by Furthermore; 10-25-2014 at 09:39 PM. Reason: grammar

This exact drop was discussed in a thread in March of 2013, when there was an accident there. http://www.bogley.com/forum/showthre...l=1#post530353 Its the 11th reply on the 2nd page.

Gotcha.
Well, it positive news - my copy arrived on Saturday. The presentation is nice.
The rappel diagrams are a bit different than what I'm use to (although I guess there is no standard for canyon profiles - and anything is better than Kelsey's diagrams) although that's not a bad thing...●Canyoneering 'Canyon Conditions' @ www.candition.com

For rappel diagrams, I prefer what Mike Dallin did in Ouray Canyoning -- a "stair" drawing w/ canyon topo legend. One "picture" (read drawing) is worth many words -- it is often needed to keep from getting lost when reading a detailed description.
