Did you know that 19 of our best-selling titles have a digital edition? Did you know that we include a free 3-month trial to our digital edition when you buy the print guide (see product description)?
We love print—duh, we’re a publisher—but we get it, climbing packs are heavy and there never seen to be enough room. Now you can ditch the extra weight in your crag pack, keep your print guidebooks in mint condition, and unlock the convenience of our wallet friendly digital edition books!
Choose from our library of climbing, bouldering, canyoneering, and hiking guides, and access your guide without waiting for the mailman.

Common Troubleshooting Tips
- If you suddenly lost access to a digital edition you’ve been using, your free trial or license may have expired. You can purchase a 1-year renewal or lifetime renewal.
- Licenses and digital editions are not the same. They must be downloaded separately. The license gives your device permission to open the digital edition.
- LockLizard cannot verify devices that don't have an allocated IP address, so you may need to log off of shared computers.
- If your guidebook won't open, please double-check that you've downloaded the correct guidebook. The licenses are set for specific books (e.g. your license for Eldorado Canyon is not going to open St. George Bouldering).
- Our digital editions are licensed for two devices only. You will need to purchase additional licenses, you must purchase another digital edition.
