I am trying to find a certain Tom Thomas, known to climb with a Dan Mathews in S Utah in the late 1980s.

This is possibly the same T. Thomas what did the as-yet unrepeated 5.9 A3 V N Face of Storm Mtn, Canadian Rockies.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Yikes! Peace be upon him!

I might guess that this is the same fellow in whom I am interested. Anybody able to confirm or deny this?

I have a word in to his partner for the Storm Pk climb, which may help clarify the issue; still no reply.

Anybody know anything about the Mathews character?

RIP Tom T.

I wonder if the gear is still there?

I used to know Tom pretty well, and he was quite an admirer of Jack Roberts. In fact, some of his journal entries were published in an old issue of the Canadian Alpine Journal (I think that one) after he died. Yes, I'm guessing it's the same Tom Thomas.............
