MA and me (Aaron Johnson) in 1982 on top of Mount Sneffels after climbing it for the first time. A year earlier, the two of us attempted Potosi Peak from Weehawken Creek. It was my third failed attempt of the mountain, with interesting consequences and discoveries. Unfortunately, I did not have a camera handy on that fateful day. See this trip report for a glimpse into my earlier (and clueless) climbing days.

MA and I would go on to climb close to 50 mountains together.
