Lama has realized a bold vision and made an impressive mark on CT history. I am duly impressed.

 

The US climbing community should stop bashing him and instead take Kennedy and Kruk to task for unilaterally acting against the will of the CT climbing community in stripping off all of those bolts. Mark me, I would have wanted to strip the bolts too, but I wouldn't have done it knowing the climbing community had agreed to keep them there. Channeling Ken Nichols is not the answer.

The Torres are burning! What a season down there, I can barely keep up with all this. Between the events themselves and the varied reactions of several generations of climbers, this has been one helluva fascinating week. Look forward to a little time passing and hearing full disclosure from all those involved.
