El Capitan Solo Climb
The crucible in stone would make a final romantic poem from me to Yosemite.
I meant “final” to mean “until I return” but I was aware many poems are tragic.

Sometimes the greatest adventures unfold from an ambitious goal confounded by errors and bad judgement, redeemed by luck, faith, tenacity or even something like grace.

Hi Karl, I’m glad to have finally found yout website again. Say, I remember it a bit differently, and it appears many of your climbing stories are missing. I remember one about the NE Buttress of Higher Cathedral Rock… are those still available? I always loved your writing! Cheers from Monterey!

Thanks for the kind words. My old climbing website was lost when the host went bankrupt suddenly and I had created it with Adobe GoLive which was discontinued and didn’t work with newer macs. So I’m trying to add some of the old stories but am afflicted by a condition known informally as laziness.
maybe your comment will help me get my act together
