Dan_Miller Posted January 7, 2010 Posted January 7, 2010 Thanks for the "heads-up" on this telecast CC! Great useful, informative first post. Possibly most of interest to us, the program will include a profile of our "beloved" Fred! A profile of legendary mountaineer Fred Beckey who has been climbing in the North Cascades for nearly seven decades, racking up more "first ascents" than any other climber in history. The 86-year-old is the author of the Beckey Guides, indispensable guidebooks for climbers and hikers exploring the backcountry.
