might want to say he was 'filmed' by a drone- not shot down

and it isnt a drone- its controlled by a human with goggles linked to a camera- squishy is enlightening me

So cool when this technology is used this way.

On a slow connection here so can't watch the video. That said I'm surprised the Pentagon gives a rat's *$$ about rap bolting!

Should have done this on Cerro Torre and then he wouldn't have had to add all those bolts to film.

Marlow's share could be called Ballsinstinct
In the summer of '81 I shared the canyons out side of Salt Lake City, and a grapefruit with Mugs S.his star was fully on the rise but he was a down to earth friend of many and got along with the then new crop of climbers better than almost any one, I was shocked that he had not been climbing longer. He was so cool of course we talked nostalgically of what ever was screwed up with climbing then and how it used to be, ha!
To be sure he was a hard core climber, one of the early fast and light ,
so light , how light
That just ain't right ,
that's how light

six apples forty Advil, water, some 'kind bars' that were soaked pemmican (?)bars? Mugs stood like six six or some thing he was a big guy.

I obviously do not know the history or how close he got?
But
In my mind Mugs Stump from the woods of Pennsylvania put up the first climb of the Moose's Tooth.
I Know there was an old article - "What are summits? Or some such by M Twight maybe?
I watched it twice, and I was struck by the snow cap that was seemingly as far as they went ?


Thanx for the cool breeze it is 90 f degrees here!
