A great NYT article on the man.
Read About Fred
Random web captures*... The lad is ICONIC!
When Fred is not climbing he has other interests...
*I take no credit for any of these snaps.

Anyone know who did this drawing of Fred? It was in Rock+Ice #166. I don't have the issue in front of me and I can't decipher the signature.

Happy Birthday Fred!
I'd be disappointed if you didn't try to get at least a smooch from Fluoride.
You're an inspiration to many more people and in many more ways than you can imagine.
On Belay!

Happy birthday, Mr. Beckey. I've never met you but it didn't take me long to ask, 'just who the hell is this Beckey guy,' after following yet another of your FAs. Hope this is another great year for you, sir. Rock on.

That guy pawed my old lady once. I spent all night think Becky just felt my gal up, and she never flinched once. I left her in Squamish.
The guy is like an octopuss with the ladies the hands are everywhere.
Happy birthday young man and I still can not believe you have not set foot atop the Captain.

Is Freddy back east?
When he's back out west he should stop by the mansion and get Hef to give him a Playmate.
