Many of you seen Sherrill's inaugural issue of their rec climbing catalog? Just got mine in the mail yesterday. It's definitely a bold step by Sherrill into the rec climbing market. I had mixed feelings looking at it but have to admit I read it cover to cover in about ten minutes which tells you something. The layout and design is excellent and they've done a good job mixing in commentary and useful information into the product display. It feels pretty balanced between a respectful approach to the ethical/environmental issues of climbing and selling the thrill aspect of climbing but my fear of the effects of over commercialization of the sport is in the back of my mind. I'm a climbing noobie so my reaction may not be well informed. Maybe some of you veterans have been waiting for awhile for this to start happening. Watcha think?
