stood on the gendarme on a trip to Seneca with Charles Tabor a long time ago, had to cross the river on a hanging bridge made of 3 cables due to that storm that washed out every thing in the bottom, classic routes there

Charles lives in Grand Junction Co., he spends his time riding his dirt bike and 4wd thru Moab and the Monument areas, a liberal in a conservative bastion.

I'm thinking (based upon the color of my hair!) that it was prolly early 81 or 82 ...

The Diaspora of Old School Climbers from the Mecca of the eastern US is complete.... Nobody left here, move along!

I remember back when ALL the climbers at RRG fit in Miguel's front room.

Bah Humbug ....
