I can't think of anyone that brought more humor and joy into what can be a rather dreadful and serious sport than Sheridan Anderson. Forever grateful for all the laughs EL wherever you are. My favorite portrait of the man in splendid company from Ascent 74.

Tami, remember the illustrations you did for the "This ain't the Cascades, Jack" article in the CAJ? That'd be a hundred years ago or so, but they were pretty good.
If I could find that issue, I'd scan em and post em, if only my scanner wasn't broken.

I've lost quite a few of the originals thatteye did. Urgggh encore........
Well, I've got a big map case in the basement, full of art from all kinds of jobs. Dunno if your CAJ illustrations are in it or not, but I'll look. If I find them I'll sell them back to you for a thousand dollars each. Canadian dollars, that is, not the funny-munny they use down here.

SHERIDANS work is what we bit our teeth on , thank God someone still remembers his mastery of capturing the sport and the times. His work speaks 100x more then words..... He'd have more insightful work since his passing then ever imaginable. So few in our sport are actually pushing it forward nowadays.....

Viva E. Lovejoy Wolfinger III.
I remember stumbling across his article about Grandstaff in a local Vegas mag. Then Sheridan was gone.
Then Randy.
So glad to see his stuff live on.
We need to do one for Randall too.

And more than a half a lifetime later that one still gets me; "the heartbreak of monsoon malaise". LOL

Lest we knott forget, the whitewater and mountain bike world's had their own equivalent to the great Sheridan...William Nealy. "Kayaks to Hell" and "Whitewater Tales of Terror" are classics!

Mimi just scored me a rare copy of The Climbing Cartoons of Sheridan Anderson by Dumais and Kelsey, 1989. It has a glass binding but I had to scan this one that I had never seen before.
The man was some kind of prolific!
