Flashback Friday

[Brad Young]

It's Monday, but we're starting a new thread for photos of us "way back in the day."

This photo of Jon is courtesy of his daughter Rachel, who finally stopped laughing long enough to forward it to me. And of his daughter Carrie, who suggested the thread title. Post up the "olden days" photos. Drama poses preferred:

where did you meet Robert Duvall?

[JC w KC redux]

Okay - you asked for some drama - spring 1994 Red River Gorge, KY - first "date" with KC - after scrambling and climbing around for several hours I went the wrong way on a scramble, turned around, raised up under an overhang and crowned myself. This was taken after a 45 minute hike back to the car - then 90 minutes to the ER for 4 staples in my scalp - note to self - don't wear visors when hiking under rocks!




Now we've got head shots to be stand-ins for Duvall and Yankovitch

Gordo helped me identify the climbs. Me (right) and Holo (left) on Pixie Rock. I'm on the 11 called "Silent but Deadly"

I need to get back to that fightin shape.

Invalid without a clear shot of your face and is that a long ponytail I see?

I think this thread is supposed to be more about mug/head shots

Fortunately, you'll note a trend with me... I post whatever climbing pics I want, unless of course it's granite in a mud thread... 

Here's to mud in yer eye...

Dennis, that's a great photo!!

EDIT: John, I didn't even notice the blood all over your face the first time I looked.

Here's a good series on Reed's Direct (notice the same pony tail seen above):

What a ridiculously small rack!

[clink]

Y'all look so purdy.

[JC w KC redux]

Those are great! Add Jon Voight to the list and Alan Alda is currently absent from the thread - I haven't pegged who Rob looks like just yet

[Atomizer]

OMG this thread is awesome. I'll dig some up after I touch some tops.

Munge?

Munge?

Not sure he has the Seagal thing goin' on - maybe he'll post an old front shot scowling for comparison

[Brad Young]

Here's a shot of two guys I've climbed with a lot. In fact I've been climbing with the one on the left since 1987. The two shown here have been climbing together since 1974. They're shown on top of Fairview Dome around 1975.

I doubt anyone on this site other than Rob has a chance of recognizing either one (and I give him only a slim chance):

Man with a name that sounds like a body part, or other man that has name that sounds like wooded area?

Neither of them is Forrest, and neither is Footie. So I'm not sure you've got who it is yet (but now you will). He turns 62 in two weeks and still has no grey hair (except a little in his beard which he grows on occasion).

Dave?

[Brad Young]

Dave?

Yep, the one and only. With his partner of 40 years, Bart (on the right). The same two climbers are on on page 8 of the 2013 SPH book.

Somewhere I've got a photo of Dave with that same crazy hair playing an electric guitar (he used to play in a rock and roll band when he was in his late teens!).
