I'm very sorry to hear of Woody's death. I never met him, although I was hoping to at the Tarbuster fundraiser in April. It sounds like he was a character and then some, and a fine climber. My sympathies to his family and friends.

Hard news to digest. I am in a bit of shock. A bit of all of us died, I'm afraid. My Prayers and good thoughts streaming out to all. I'm so sorry. I just not sure what to say.

hey there comic and locker and all... you know, there may be some folks that do not check into some post, and may not know this has happened, as to woody...
perhaps later, you may wish to make an offical note, for those that may only read more regional post...
it is just a though... perhaps when it is time for the family's services, and such...

This is so sad. Condolences to Woody's family, Locker, and the rest of his many friends. It sounds like he was quite an individual and will be greatly missed. Wishing Alfred a speedy recovery. Many thanks to the folks who were involved in the rescue that day. Everyone, PLEASE be safe out there!

i didnt know Woody directly but just happened to be at intersection rock on sunday as the emergency responders pulled up... it had been a beautiful day in joshua tree and the sun was nearing the evening horizon. A feeling of mournful gravity fell over the parking lot as the fire truck rolled silently by, lights flashing but no sirens. The warmth of the days sun lingered in the air, and a strange sense that something of huge importance passed through every climber's mind as the sun set gracefully on this epic journey.

Hang in there TGT, Locker, Dwain, Todd, Karen and other good friends.
I think we all shed tears over this. I never got a chance to meet Woody, but this really hurts. I feel like I lost a member of my family.
God bless you, Woody.

so shocked! Woody was great around here! I loved how he mixed it up.
The crotch shot always made me shudder and laugh at the same time.
Bon Voyage!
