  1. Congrats Dave, well deserved! Not read the peak guide, but I'd say you stand a good chance against the rockfax. By far the most sterile and soul-less series of guidebooks for trad crags I've ever seen.

  5. Fair play Dave, it's well deserved. Haven't seen the other guides but it's hard to imagine how yours could be topped. Best of luck with it.
