Davey, The shot of CBD is backwards dude! I've got the last in the series of you at the lip. I think Joan was on camera that day. Good to see you've been scanning. We had a scanning frenzy going on last evening. There will be big surprises going way, way, way back. And, more to come for Gunks II. LCS is in dyno mode.
On a related note, 2010 will be the 75th anniversary of Gunks climbing. RC

Stemming through Simple Suff is not the best way for a 50 year old to wake up. Thanks Bob

This is a photo of Rosie Andrews, one of the great Gunks climbers from the 70s-early 80s. I learned a lot climbing with her. She had incredible technique and nerves of steel. Rosie is climbing Kevin Bein's test piece: No Comment 5.11+ PG in this photo:

For those of you who have asked about the "reunion" at the Gunks this fall, the main day is going to be October 18th where I will be giving a slide show centering on the people and climbing in the seventies. There will be a lot of people coming early to recapture the feeling on being on good rock and Bob D told me that there would be some top ropes in the Slime area for those who have lost the penchant of leading hard climbs.

To me "Gunks" and "Vulgarians" are inseparable. For a little history I refer you to www.bardini.org and the anecdote "Who created the Vulgarians?"

Keeping the thread alive. Gunks II has begun. Folks are slowly arriving in town. This past weekend the place was packed out as usual. Parking lots were near full by 9 am with normal climbing traffic as well as leaf peepers, dog walkers, runners, bikers, and many others. Many climbs had continuous activity from sunrise to sunset and beyond. It looks to be a great week of memories revisited and some new ones to come. RC

Does anyone know if the party starts some time before the slide show, or at the same time as the slide show on Saturday? Don't know what time to arrive...
