Thanks for the tap on the shoulder Bullwinkle.
The photo attribution upthread IS in fact correct for Brianne Rennie.
Clearly I misunderstood Kieth's Cunning's reference.

Thanks Steve!
I'll add a little "late to the party" appetizer of Mark Wilford at horsetooth with a broken arm still pulling off amazing stuff.

I was 18 when 'Pumping Sandstone' was published, had been climbing seriously about a year on 'Bama sandstone. It was a major, MAJOR influence. Thanks John.

I was living in LaCrosse, Wisconsin when the Wilford-Horsetooth article came out, where I struggled on Devil's Lake quartzite and wondered how F9 could be so darn hard.
What I would *really* love to see was the Letter to the Editor that appeared in an issue subsequent to Wilford's article and in reference to it - absolutely hilarious! If someone could post up that little gem, we'd all have a good laugh.
Thanks for scanning and posting, and especially for the McTopo comments from our heroes!

Interesting that the photo of Largo with the "cig" is claimed by someone other than me. I would totally like to talk to Keith Cunning about that and would like to see his original film; which I can produce.
If you notice in the "Pumping Granite" article, I am given photo credits for all the shots. The "cig" shots where taken at the same time.

Nice shots, Brian! Screwing up the credits is a drag.
Any others from those sessions that you would care to share?

More classic content, combining great historical figures like John Long (that historical part said purely tongue-in cheek) ...
