Hey Tim
Guess you were thinking same as your Bro when we did Pan Am, glad I talked you out of it saying I wanted to lead the Brown Dihedral, was true I did want to.
How about the midnight serenade the week before.
Glad your well thanks for posting up

Hi Rich,
How goes it these days?
Luckily, memory doesn't serve me well when it comes to recalling some of the wild partying I did back in those days. Fortunately I'm taking better care of my health in that department.
Pan Am route a cool memory with a great partner in a remote place. Thanks for not letting me jug that old rope. That trip might not have turned out so well.
Midnight serenade? I'm almost scared to ask.
-Tim

Ever since I first read stories about this guy written by John Long, I've always admired his passion for living on the edge. R.I.P. Tobin.

Sorry Jefe'
Pretty sure that's not a photo of me,
I never wore a helmet climbing except when ice climbing many years later years in Lee Vining Canyon.
Must be someone else...

Possibly my younger brother Tom but I don't recognize the photo.
Cool pics of Tobin on the Accamazzo article thread btw.
Thanks for posting them.

Dibbs, that's you....
You scrounged that helmet somewhere
and wore it for a joke.
I was doing a climb to your left
and you wanted a picture.

Helmet, Robbins boots, and longjohns under daisy dukes, what an ensemble. No wonder my wife won't take me anywhere. What route was that if you recall? I must have selected that day right out of my memory.
Thanks Jefe'

Suicide.
Left of Valhalla.
Early to Mid-70's.
You were just a lad.
The first time I met you
I was with Harrison and
Tobin, we were bouldering
at Baldy.
If I remember correctly,
your dad had a place in
Baldy, just don't remember
the name of the canyon.
