Thought about Guy this morning wondering where he would be taking the ice game these days...Big loss to global alpinism that he left so young and strong as he dreamed very big.

Guys death is to ice climbing what Hendrixs death is to rock music.

Wow. I missed this or didn't take the time to read it in the past. Very inspiring, and sorry to read that we lost such a guy.
Thanks Steve, another great thread!

The first time I led 20 below zero gully he had just done Glass Menagerie. Not knowing the route I had done the WI5 variation up the right side of 20 below. I was going by what I thought I rememberd from the picture in my 1981 guide book ;) Because I was off route we ended up shareing the same belay ledge. I was estatic to just get up one climb at The lake but Guy was doing laps on the huge upside down umbrellas that sometimes form at the top of Glass.

Because of the extraordinary reach that this forum has thanks to Cmac and the quality of his enterprise I am happy to keep climbing front and center here.
I will be creating a virtual museum once NACHA gets up and going but I have zero interest in maintaining a forum in connection with that work so putting effort into the ST is very worthwhile for me.
This is an excellent gateway to the world of climbing and I just wish folks would focus on that aspect of it and leave the rest of the world out of the picture.

Cool to run across this video of Guy Lacelle tonight, showing the life he led as a treeplanter in BC, when he wasn't ice climbing:

Bump for an iconic alpinist. Fun to ponder what he would have gotten done had he been able to stick around.
