Guidebooks: I know we definitely need the guidebooks. I'm not going to 
dispute that point. I was just wondering if anyone knew of a source for used 
guides, so that we could save a couple of bucks for a meal or a bed or an ice axe 
down the road... But if there's no source to be had I guess we'll spring for 
the $100.

I don't think libraries would work too well, because how could we take the 
info with us? Photocopies? In miniature?

Anyway, thanks for all your feedback--I'm in digest mode, so I'll respond to 
it slowly, as I process. With, of course, more questions.
