The printed version of the new Mt Wellington Guide is now available.

It can be purchased online for $13 USD + postage at http://stores.lulu.com/thesarvo

The printed version comes out at 147 pages, in pocket-size format (slightly bigger than the last guide). B&W inside with color covers. Quite a few photos inside.

Hopefully it will be available in the shops in 3 weeks or so. Will let you know when it arrives.

As we are using publish-on-demand, the idea is that we will cut a new version of the printed guide every 6 months or so, or when the volume of new routes and content builds up.

It's awesome to actually get a version 1.0 out the door. A big thanks go to everyone involved in the project:

Tony McKenny: Editor and chief mover and shaker.
Al Adams: Editor and author of colourful descriptions.
Dave Humphries: Editor and topo tweak master.
Jon Nermut: Editor and boss of printed layout and web trickery .
Phil Robinson: Detail review officer and author of the 1981 guidebook.
Peter Jackson: Artmaster responsible for crafting the crag topos.
Ivan Riley: Site topos and maps.
Thanks to Max Banks, Al Beech, Doug Bruce, Josh Caples, Simon Carter, Lyle Closs, Nic Deka, Campbell Godfrey, Dave Gray, Stefan Karpiniec, Doug McConnell, Gerry Narkowicz, Roger Parkyn, Simon Parsons, Garry Phillips, Kim Robinson, Ian Snape, Pete Steane, The Wellington Park Management Trust, Al Williams, Alex Wilson, Simon Young, wives and partners of the editors and many others for their contributions, updates, comments and photos.
