I started climbing with Colin when he was 15 years old, and was already climbing like a guy who had 20 years experience. One evening he phoned me and excitedly said e he had just soloed the Tooth. http://www.summitpost.org/the-tooth/150784 I literally thought to myself, "You will do much more impressive climbs than that before you are finished." It has been neat to watch hms grow and progress to become one of the best alpinists out there, all the while remaining humble and gracious.
