Happy Birthday Mugs.

You would have been 63 on this fine day.

You've been an inspiration to many and continue to motivate through the Mugs Grant.

Werner knew how much you hated football, yet it gave you a framework for later in life.

Keep sending the pitches. You were my sensei.

You humble grasshopper.

Best of all he was just a good guy. Really cool to young new kids who wanted to do stuff in the big mountains.

I never met him, but I read the list of names and have climbed with some. It is kind of weird how we are all connected somehow.

I have thought about that on routes like the Nose or other popular routes. You know, belly flopping onto Dolt Tower and knowing that pretty much all of your buddies and heroes and whoever have touched the same holds. If holds could tell stories, that would be pretty damn cool.
