Starting in '68, less than a half century of climbing, but I was born in the sweet spot and got to ride the wave of new devices, first better pins, then nuts, then cams, in an environment that ate them up.
Now I'm resented for bagging all the low hanging fruit.
So eat yer heart out. Spoiled doesn't begin to describe how fortunate I have been.
Good luck youngsters, yer gonna have to hike a long ways to get what I got.

Brian, that's a great find.
Truly reflective of Alex's spirit.

I think that there is sweet and bitter all over the tree, but don't disagree about kicking it up a notch.
But most climbers favor the short approach trade routes.
