Regarding the heckling, Avery...
Let it go
Let it roll
Quack Quack!

Nice article Patrick,

Interesting about your climbing, and your background. I for one have always appreciated your posts and your chronicling of some of the history of many great alpine routes. Those that can't do often teach, and I no longer fall into either category. And thank you for reposting the work you did here that you had deleted also. It was after all, despite some criticism, the right thing to do.

So keep up the good work and let me take a little of the heat off.
I've have definitely f*#ked up here with many lame posts, and have deleted plenty of boner moves on supertopo in the few short years since I've shown my face here.

It's not the many good things we might do in this life that people remember, but the times we screw up that sticks in people's minds the most...laugh it off.

Cheers down there you crazy Kiwi!
In all friendship,
-Tim Sorenson

Thanks for the link, Avery. I don't care about heckling, as long as there's good stuff. I can separate the wheat from the chaff.

Well, at least now I know why he has been asking these random mountain questions... or do we?

The last pic in the article looks like Patrick's head is photoshopped onto the body. Just me think that?

I hope I wasn't that "one guy".......

I had to put on two pair of glasses to be able imagine thee to tell...

Let's imagine a vertical z axis and rotation about that axis will change the x-y plane. If you draw a line between the shadow of the flap to the pack on the snow to the right and the actual location behind the subject, it agrees with the angle of shading on his neck from his hood.

But if you look at the shadowing from the crease on his sleeve, it suggests the hood should shadow his face more. I expect this is a cut and paste.

As to the number of glasses Locker requires, it is common knowledge he has four eyes, all looking in their own direction.
