If you wanna save some of the pdf's to your computer here are a few links to ones that are still floating about.

I didn't even know dr topo still existed.

It was a great and innovative idea. Climbers everywhere should pay homage.

If they're old enough, they should pay respects to Tim Toula's Rock N' Road as well.


blimp, is better beta the next step?

If people update that shit. I tried adding a problem from Black Mt and the GPS wouldn't work. Too spotty there. I'd love that shit to be perfectly functional tho.

stupid job...


still working on iphone version, actually added some functionality last week.

I was hoping to get it ready for hueco season, but unfortunately my job has been keeping me very busy.

pfff betterbeta is the future anyway.

betterbeta is vaporware.

pfftttt
who wants to beta test?

android phone or iphone

iphone. what do i do again?

send me a PM with your device ID

If you are in itunes with phone/device connected, click on device, open "summary" tab, click on Serial Number, it will turn into "Identifier (UDID)" apple + c or ctrl + c (on pc) and it will copy to clipboard. Its is really weird tho, it won't let you highlight the number, but it will copy to clipboard.

Paste into PM, i'll send u app.

Will do.

Dr. Who?

Good riddance.

The fact that Dr. Topo early on copied a clearly copyrighted guidebook to Joes Valley word-for-word and problem-by-problem (including a made up problem or two to detect such) sucks.

Conveniently enough for them, copyright law is difficult and expensive to enforce - especially across international borders.

I would rather buy a guidebook from the (usually local) climbers/authors. Then again, I am a sucker for guidebooks, especially guidebooks with local perspective and history.

I agree that it had its flaws--the "quality" of some of its topos included--but I still think it was a good idea for areas that aren't notable enough for their own guides.

That's funny that people always bring the Joe's Valley guide because I had another source, prior to Baldwin's guide. Somebody sure got fucked with that guide, it could have been Baldwin, it could have been the other source or it could even have been me for breeding so many utard haters. But you're right on one point : good riddance.

topo! When are you coming south again?

i had some issues with the sny beta. like downgrading future extensions to naturally longer problems. but then i met the guys and realized tehy were good quality dirtbags with nothing to hide but their egos and thought,<ok so if that's what you've got, feel free to flaunt it> so long as it's for free. blessed be the dirtbags, for they are at the base of our being and i am prettier than any of them. so they're all cool from this perspective/

V5 doesn't exist in the rating systems real climbers use.

B1-, B1, B1+

covers 90% of the probs you need to use shoes on. jusayin'.
