The Rockfellows are the most impressive crags at one of the coolest areas, anywhere. You Southern AZ boys and your escapades back in the day have always been inspiring to me. Your story is a perfect example of why. Gotta do that Abra, but it seems to be closed for birds when Ive been there.

Probably the most gifted climber in Tucson, Mike defined local boldness and climbed on a tiny rack of less than ten pieces! He liked to mark his biners by drilling a shallow hole and filling it with red paint. The trouble was he chose to drill right at the failure point on the radius, further accentuating the old school maxim that the leader must not fall! Mike made quite an impression in Yosemite while he was active in the 70's, his talent being apparent to anyone watching him climb.

Wow, the mcdowlles,dragons, torn Mnt ? what is that Scottsdale stuff?
(Lol = Life on Lipitor, That mess up memory ,in high does) What a list of ballsy leads!
GAWD! Some real horror shows!
Thanks
