Simon McCartney (UK) and Jack Roberts (USA) did two impressive lines in Alaska together in the late '70s early 80s, the NW face of Huntington in '77 and a new route on the SW face of Denali in '80. Both climbs well ahead of their time in a number of ways.
Simon McCartney virtually disappeared, as far as I know, from the climbing scene after the new route on Denali and final rescue.
Jack Roberts hasn't heard from him in years.
Anyone know Simon's where abouts today?
This same question is cross posted on the UKC web site.

Jack is a good guy.
Any one know of Simon? There has to be someone out there who knows.

Hi, It is Simon McCartney. A friend of mine stumbled onto this website when doing some research. I am alive and well living mostly in Hong Kong.
Please anybody from the past feel free to contact me.
The saddest thing, I logged on for the first time and I see "jack Roberts RIP".
