I was just reading a whole bunch of cascadeclassics.org last night, thinking about what an amazing group that is. How very, very, sad.

Condolences to his family and also, to everyone who shared such incredible adventures with a guy who was so obviously talented, intelligent, and eloquent. I will dearly miss his trip reports and photos on cascadeclassics.

Thanks for sharing with us, John. I hope all your memories of your friend doing what he loved are at least some consolation.

peace
