bertusgeert 1 #1 April 17, 2005 Did a search on Dean and couldn't find anything...(not even google) A buddy gave me an article Dean Potter wrote in "Alpinist". I do not know how recent the article is, but knowing the little I do about the politics at the cave, as well as the event in boulder featuring footage, it must have been a while. If you aren't familiar with the story, let me know and I will retype it. Is his story 100% believable? That is friggin nuts! Has he started climbing again? If he didn't lie (which, why would he), he has major balls. Very glad he is OK and things turned out the way they did! --------------------------------------------- As jy dom is moet jy bloei!

jonstark 8 #3 April 17, 2005 I wish I could join you guys at this event! Have fun... If you've never heard of Dean or Steph, They are real, very real. Their exploits are the stuff of novels and I don't know how Dean can carry what must be a ton of brass balls. How would you say the same for Steph ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
