Met him once at a backcountry lodge. I'm not a climber, but was on a long hiking trip and he was staying the night about to approach a climb. We were just like "who's the old guy" (he was mid 80's at the time) and wound up having dinner with him and a bunch of others. I only know a bit about him but it was inspiring seeing someone living like that even into old age.
