the first of these legends to die that i connected w/, in a real way talkeetna, 2003 - got good n' high w/ him n' his dog in the park right by the west rib pub - the 3 of us spent a couple hrs snoozing in the sun soon thereafter

sounds like a chest beat to me - free soloing is by definition climbing/o a rope, but at some point 1st class turns into 2nd class and so on, so where you start being afraid of dying if you peel off i guess is free soloing, which could be still just hiking whatever gets you off i reckon, but i prefer long, easy free-solos - 2000+ feet of 5.4 is ideal

national news headlines like "hiker dies in fall on mt hood"
