Vicki's wearing high-tops! I love high-tops! Asolos were my favorite shoes.

The aspect of that shot on The Anvil reminds me of the one of you in the guidebook on Carousel. Very cool.

Vicki having lunch just off the trail, below the upper part of Toog's, 1991 (the second shot is the dedication photo from the 2007 guidebook, but it's better in color):

As is obvious, some of these shots are pretty poor photos. But they are of Pinns and they are old. Vicki took this shot of me soloing Overhang Chimney. It's taken from deep in the chimney, outward, toward the light:




Vicki took this too of me soloing Flimsy Flume:

And by the way, the ancient shot of Caleb and the old shots of Bob are just fantastic.

I see the FA for Spaceman was 93 - how 'bout dates on the others?

I bet that Overhang Chimney has not been repeated (looks fun by the way - NOT!) and Flimsy Flume beckons to me like the White Whale.
