Weekend_Climberz Posted June 9, 2003 Share Posted June 9, 2003 I as well have vigorously used his knowledge through his books and can only say that he will be sorely missed by all. He truly helped to make the WA trails and wildernesses better for all to enjoy. What a great life he must have lived. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
