my first climbing partner in Colorado

my first climbing partner in Colorado

At Naturita crags, western Colorado. Michael Covington was a very known climber in 60s, 70s, 80s, with many new ascents all over the world. And, my first climbing partner in Colorado - what a luck! Love his style - knee pads, socks, and incredible control on the rock...

Is that...

his hair sticking out like that?
BTW, I always have, and still do wear socks with my climbing shoes, but no knee pads. May be I should start. Heaven knows, I'm old enough!

Re: Is that...

Hi Marc, I was hoping that you heard of this guy. He was well known in 60s,70s as a climber. Yes, he does have a lovely hair...
P.S. I tend to climb with socks too...

Of course I had heard of him, unless I was asleep for the past forty years.
Yeah, socks with climbing shoes. No stinky shoes in the car.

Re: Is that...

Well, sleeping is not bad...
Or buying climbing shoes too big? haha
even Michael was surprised at my generous space in my toe section, haha. I like comfort....
I have seen people using baby powder on their feet.
