TimL Posted October 12, 2001 Posted October 12, 2001 A quote from a friend of mine who did one of the early ascents of Astroman on nuts and hexs. "So theres some 5.11 crack pitches on this climb...huh. I was leading 5.11 cracks before you were born." Quote

pope Posted October 12, 2001 Posted October 12, 2001 Back then, sex was safe and climbing was dangerous. Once at a Beckey slide show, he took a final question for the evening: Do you have any good bivouac stories? Fred responded that he did, but that she probably didn't want her name mentioned. Good night everybody. Quote
