Flash Site Last Updated 9/1/08
The Flash Site structure is functional. Content is not in place. Work on this section has been delayed indefinitely.
• Comprehensive Online Guide
• Downloadable PDFs
• Printed Guide Available for Purchase (if I ever actually finish writing it, which isn't likely)
• This site might someday be a FREE non-profit online climbing
guide to sites all across New Mexico.
Although currently under construction, this site will eventually host comprehensive
guides for every significant climbing area in New Mexico.
These pages currently serve as a testbed and beta site for the Flash program
which is currently being written.
Check back for updates, but expect the online guide for Enchanted Tower to be
complete by August 1, 2003 (okay, that didn't happen) with Socorro following shortly thereafter.
• Look for free downloadable PDFs in the near future which will be added as time permits.
• A bound printed guide
for Enchanted Tower and Socorro will be available for mail-order purchase at
this site. Don't expect the printed guide to become available ant time soon.
Payment will be accepted via PayPal (credit card) or by money order.
The free PDF downloads will still be available, but a high quality printed guide
is being developed for those who prefer a perfect binding with high quality
images on glossy paper.
100% of writers royalties and all other proceeds from this site will benefit
these climbing areas via donations to non-profit conservation organizations
and private bolt/anchor/trail maintenance projects.
