Cover of guide

This is the cover of the guide. Its Rob Hunter on Cloud9 on Chimney Rock Mountain in the Mournes. Taked by Dave Hunter. Its a great shot and as soon as I saw it I knew it was right for the cover. I wanted something with a good bit of sky for the title. As much a landscape as a climbing shot - I think the photo would be pretty good without the climber and spotter. Cloud9 is supposed to be one of the best problems in the Mournes and Chimney Rock is a fair slog up the hill. The other candidates were not near as good as this shot. Thanks Rob and Dave...
