Light? Man, that vid wasn't light. I'm not sure I want to know how Vitaly
found it, either. And, who's phone numbers were on the screen at the end?
Maybe a woodlovers' helpline? (I lost the audio as I had fastforwarded to the denouement)

I don't speak much Roosky....Zdrastvootsyeh...(Mercan spelling)
But don't worry, I'm Russian on the inside, where it counts.
Plus, I learned to climb like a Russian, no money, no gear, no clothes.....
Sh#t, no wonder all poor people make good climbers!

I absolutely adore this young man. His spunk, his affect, intellect and if I had a daughter....!!!
If he didn't already have a wonderful Mom I'd adopt him!!!
Rock on Mike!

His fine record of accomplishments aside, what appeals to me about Vitaliy is his vitalitiy.
He's a bundle of energy but not at all tightly wound like some rock gods.
Yes, V, you are one of the divine: the Demi-god of ST.
(Sorry, donini, yer one of the Old Gods now.)
Carry the torch well, V. You have a lot of living and climbing left to do.

A Righteous soul, who walks THE LONG WALK, can talk the talk but sees a better way to leave a mark.
He has gone away and come around again.
there was a guy named RShore?
who's exploits were on a par
they should get together on the next line up Buds Creek Wall.
Thanks for the tall dreams V (myshanko??)
I should'a really looked it up before I tried to write it down

Excellent dude: nice as can be, good sense of humor, inspiring level of energy and passion. Very glad I met him in person a few times. Definitely the kind of person you want to surround yourself with in life.
Cheers, Vitaliy, see you out there.

Bumping the old. The "kid" has done well. His work in SEKI reminds me of the old days. Unbridled enthusiasm in an uncommon league.

Now you have a reason to get off and go back to summit. Doubt that we will hear the last of this? you are wasting my time, go climbing.

A tad over 7 years ago. A different time and a different place. A time when one is just beginning.
A tale, long gone, as in bye, bye, so long, take it easy, write, UPS……a tale that doesn’t belong, a change.
No reason to go to summit, you belong here and have seen you have.
As for: Doubt that we will hear the last of this! gone
As for wasting my time, NO you are not wasting my time. Climb, Climb, Climb and when you are tired of that Climb again. You are doing good, excellent. Excellent Trip Reports, keep writing and for those A++ Professional Photos. Watermark those babies.
*I deleted last paragraph on the first original post and see I can’t change the second. I was about to delete the whole thing and said no. The story goes Vitally caught me picking my nose.
