  1. Trip: Denver - Final Ascent Date: 5/5/2012 Trip Report: On May 5, 2012, David Trippett made his final ascent in Denver Colorado. David left a note saying he had been suffering from unbearable pain for many years before tying a complex climbing know and taking his own life. He was my son and his adventrues were always the source of vicarious pleasure for me and my family, especially his little sister Julianna. He left his wonderful Rhodesian Ridgeback, Obi, with his sister in Colorado. There will be a memorial service for him at The Episcopal Church of the Holy Cross in Redmond, Washington on June 9, 2012, at 1:00 pm. We expect to have Wagner Machado there and we hope to have Joao and others who have shared David's adventures. Please come if you can to share in the wonderful life of David Trippett. Bill Trippett, his dad. Contact me at w7vp@comcast.net or friend me on Facebook.

    Need Help

    Thanks fellows. I will check my PMs too. I have a rope in a pully at the top of one of my trees. It hold up a wire antenna. It broke a couple of weeks ago and the stop knot is keeping it from coming down but the loose end is about 40 feet up. I need to pull the loose end down so I can reconstrut the halyard and re connect the antenna. My son would do it for me but he is in PHX as we speak. I do a lot of climb shots myself and sometimes come to the Town Wall and Squish with David. The town wall is tough without a static rope though because of the trees, even with a 400 mm lens. Happy clmbing everyone. Bill
