November 1999. First outdoor valley climb with Ed and Will. There are no otherwords that I can textualize other than "Spirituality 101". Dream of high places and the peaks can be yours, reality. Cheers!

I have a June 6, 1999 notation that I'm thinking was the day...
thanks for the other-than-wordly memory of that climb.

It will be good to see you out there again!

Let me say of another day in which Gary got such a kick from T.M.Herbert saying to me that " I would never climb El Cids Embrace in my lifetime". What a trip it was to climb with him that day on SPD😎. What a charismatic persona. Thanks Ed and homage to the spirit of the rope🍉. Cheers!!!

It would appear under trip reports I have falsely reported that I had a " a Great First Yosemite Climb" with Ed and will. there is another filming of the commitment I know will never see an Oscar. A most humbling debut...Ed I forget their names. I am so sorry you guys!!!
