I have to call BS here, JH. You and I exchanged emails about this project. Tim also contacted you. I saw the emails. My understanding is that he at least tried to set up a meet with you. You're saying that never happened?
"Effort" was made. But as you indicated then, and you're certainly reinforcing here, the only contribution you guys were willing to make was to say, "Don't Do It." It seems a bit beyond phony to now come here and say that no attempt was made to get you guys onboard.
I think it's pretty obvious who hasn't reconciled their ill will here. Tim "moved on" long ago. Please consider trying to do the same.
I also was CC.ed on those emails. Effort was made, but it seemed like Tim was going to do what Tim was going to do. I did not get the impression that he was open for any constructive criticism. Of any kind. If you ask the locals of 20 years ago. Tim is not high on there list of favorite people. The current guide book is wrong.
I agree with Stewart, wonder if he will list all the new FFA’s. My guess is no, considering I know some of the FFA climbers and Tim has not gotten ahold of them to get info from.
Wayne….see what can of worms you have opened by posting about Beacon. Ha ha.
