I have no connection or recollection of any of the creatures in tar's post four up-thread, and resemble his remark.
Being of Norwegian descent, and having even been to Trollheimen (= "Home of the Trolls": another story, for another day), I know a troll when I see one. The four in the picture are, L-R, Piton Ron, dirtineye, Juan de Fuca and DaftRat. (The latter as himself.) Photographer tar. I'm not sure who the dainty ethereal elf is, but LEB is as good a guess as any. She looks a little out of place.

Randy,
I think you got everyone right in that picture, including yourself. I also was guessing it was you with your back to the camera.

Ooh. I see Old People (who once were much younger)!
September, 1974. Dominique Thomas, Al Bartlett and Robs Muir had just topped-out on a three-day ascent of the Salathé. (Big Al's in the full-lotus position.) Quite unexpectedly, we were met at the El Cap summit cairn by Gunnar Swanson and Jim Hoagland who hauled-up a fresh honeydew melon. Sweet!

Cool pics.

Not sure but herding Swedes is pretty close to herding cats methinks.
It's a good thing they're a phlegmatic lot.

Third time for this photo on this thread. I have no comment about Billy, but I bet the previously-unidentified biker is CF.

Bluey, yes, but anywhere else there would have been fisticuffs.
Not in Sweden though.

I love that picture of Croft and Lauria, they both look like the cat that just ate the canary!
