Blake Posted April 22, 2010 Posted April 22, 2010 Hey all, heads up on another event in Bellingham! Malcolm Daly, the alpinist, rock climber, and all around rad guy, is going to be giving a presentation next tuesday (4/27) at 8pm at Backcountry Essentials in Bellingham. Malcolm has climbed for over 40 years, was a founding board-member of the Access Fund and Paradox Sports, and started the climbing company Great Trango Holdings. He's presenting about an epic Alaskan trip in 1999 with Jim Donini, resulting in a 200' fall, being stranded alone for 48 hours while his partner went for help, and the the eventual amputation of a foot. Since then, Malcolm has remained a committed rock climber, ice climber, cyclist, and fly fisher. He definitely doesn't let minor inconveniences likes a missing foot get in the way of having an adventure.

Off_White Posted April 22, 2010 Posted April 22, 2010 He's doing the same show in Olympia the following night at the Warehouse Rock Gym. I'm psyched.
IceScrewed Posted April 23, 2010 Posted April 23, 2010 Malcolm's a funny guy, a hell of a climber, and great storyteller. If you go ask him about the time he peeled off while soloing in Eldo.
