crazyjizzy Posted January 30, 2006 Posted January 30, 2006 What ever happened to him? I saw his dad years ago at Simpson Tacoma Kraft, and he wasn't too sure of Quinn's wereabouts. Quote
curtveld Posted January 31, 2006 Posted January 31, 2006 Any connection to the ‘Quin Conehead Pre-Memorial Route’ at Darrington? Must be an interesting story behind that. Anyway, don’t know the guy, but hope the news is better than for the other dude you were asking about today. Quote
crazyjizzy Posted January 31, 2006 Author Posted January 31, 2006 Yes, the route was named for him. Quote
David Koenig Posted June 4, 2017 Posted June 4, 2017 Quin graduated from UW with engineering degree. Now lives alternately in Belgium and Brazil doing contract work for an Airbus subsidiary. Quote
Pete_H Posted June 5, 2017 Posted June 5, 2017 I once heard the route name was in reference to Quin's prototype design of a cone shaped helmet for deflecting rockfall. The route name apparently reflects the namers opinion on the efficacy of the helmet design. Quote
