I'll use another commenter's words: it's difficult for me to comprehend what goes into climbs like these, so I look at the expressions and reactions of the individuals and the story is plain to see.

    It still cracks me up to see El Chalten. When I was there in '79, all we had was the funky little gaucho's hut where he would sell climbers cigarettes, whiskey, and polenta. For meat there were sheep killed and butchered with a Swiss Army knife. After getting blown off Fitzroy a few times, I put up a route with another American on Guillaumet over 3 days (which Colin Haley has now soloed in a couple hours) and freezing my feet on that climb, I left the area. Always have wished I would have had the vision to figure a way to stick around and continue to develop the area.
