You need some tonic Anton

Climber..,,pretend you have ignore button for mr sweetheart

I know mountains a bit

Reinhold Messner was my hero way back then

I follow Alex Honnold

I fear the longer he climbs it's just a matter of time

My wife gets emotional watching his YouTube climbs

I'm old now

I go to the San Juans and just drive my FJ up high

Still a damp shelf with a 2000 foot drop off gets the blood going at 12,000 feet

Good luck with your endeavors

My admiration and prayers

There is a shelf road like that going up to Yankee Boy Basin in Colorado. Going down I think I met Anton at almost the end for me. He would not back up and let me by so I had to back up the entire shelf road which was very dangerous. At the end I made sure I pulled to the inside. If this SOB tried anything I could push him off the edge.
