And it's not just about climbers. This guy knew and drank with all of the world famous cast but he himself was a world class skier. All kinds of people hung at the Vag. From Royal Robbins to Frank Serpico and everyone else in between.

I worked at the Vag in Fall of 1971. Anyone there at that time?

Visiting friends at the American School in the spring of 1967, we were persona non grata there so we camped out at the Vagabond Club for three days (which was off-limits to the students). Leysin is a beautiful place where I wish, someday, to return. PARTY!

New photos coming soon to Super Topo but more importantly the film looks to be finished by late July. I'll continue to bump from time to time for entertainment value and for hopefully a new story or two that might need to be filmed. Thanks for all the interest!

Jay, did you know Kim Ramsey or Peter Craig? They're in the film. Got any stories?

Bump for levity around here. The film is getting close to being finished but anything is still welcome. Photos would be great. Can't have enough of them.

I'll be darned. The bearded cat on the right in that June 19 kitchen crew photo is Court Richards! I remember a few stories about the Club Vagabond. He must have been the world's most amusing dishwasher. (Dig that towel!) The tall guy in the back looks like Ted Wilson, but I don't remember him looking that tall. Maybe he was standing on a fallen Scot.
