Gregg I will have to secure permission from the owners of the content...it's an ongoing project that I was fortunate enough to get John's interview to transcribe. It is not my material and when the project is done it WILL be worth buying a copy of it. Some priceless stuff in this and many other interviews...historical to say the least, priceless if yer a climber!

Hey Kerwin good to hear from you! Thanks a bunch for meeting with them, seems like a cool project, glad to help out where I can. Jeeezus no doubt that is a labor intensive thing to transcribe, but this is the sort of thing that NEEDS to get done for those in the future to read and for the preservation of the words and knowledge of those that have come before us. What I got out of doing this is WAY bigger than the work I put into it!

Munge... Its not the pants holding you back, its the shoes and the hair !! Is that a mullet ? I think I still have some of those pants around... along with my red and white striped lycra tights and green ninjas !!
But more importantly, WHERE IS THAT BOULDER LOCATED ?? What an awesome piece of rock. My hands are sweating and Im drooling now !!

P.S. Hay Munge... Please don't put a bolt ladder on it !!

I challenge Munge to a sitstart standoff of at least 3 moves in a row.

Bouldering is good stuff. It'll be around as long as climbing itself is.

K, I'm trying, but it's a tough battle.


goat! That's not a fair contest. "Slabs are out of bounds."

It ain't real bouldering til yer dragging yer left side up a slabby sit start!!!

Anything taller than 4 ft and we have to rehearse the moves on top-rope, right?
