Does anyone have any information on this edition of the book verses the edition below that you see most often?

The edition with the Snow Creek Wall topo on the cover was definitely the first edition. I had a copy back in high school when I first started climbing. Read it like a novel wondering if I'd ever be good enough to do Outer Space. I have a certain amount of nostalgic love for that book, but I'll be damned if I can find my copy.

Hey Dave. I really appreciate that info. I just met Fred Beckey at a wedding BEFORE I found this book, so it made me even more interested in it. Thank you for the response. I hope your copy turns up. :)

Bump for Fred and Eric now racking up in heaven...
Eric told me a story about the two of them standing on a narrow ledge on Midnight Rock anchored to a single wooden block. Eric drove it in but didn't notice that it had split with the last blow and when it popped they were both left there flapping their angel wings to avoid the big plunge!
