Far too young, what a tragedy. That stoke and joy was unmistakable in those pictures, RIP Eric.

Sorry for the loss of your friend. RIP.
The summit is a source of power. The long view gives one knowledge and time to prepare. The summit, by virtue of the dizzying exposure, leaves one vulnerable. A bit of confidence and a dash of humility is all we get for our work. Yet to share these moments with friends is to be human. C. Anker

Thanks for sharing the pics! Because of covid I didn't see him nearly as much as I would have normally after he moved to CO in 2019. Met him at 18 at UW-Madison, within weeks of moving into the dorms, and have been very good friends since. I will miss him dearly.

I placed a stone for him in at the base of a tree in Eldorado canyon on the wind tower rock feature, between the two main routes on the feature.

Any more pics you have to post would be awesome!
Here's one from my wedding in 2017.
