Description

Fred Beckey will present highlights from his climbing adventures
and first ascents.
If you look in guide books for Mt. McKinley, Mt. Hunter, Mt.
Deborah, Mt. Waddington, The Canadian Rockies, The Bugaboos,
The Cascade Range, Sierra Nevada, Wind River Range, Desert
Tower, Squamish, Mexico (etc, etc…) chances are you’ll see Fred
Beckey listed, often as the first person to ascend a particular
mountain or route. It’s also likely he’s written the book. Whether
you are a mountaineer or a rock climber, Fred’s got something to
say of interest to you. And if you’re going climbing, there’s a
good chance he’ll hitch a ride to the crag, the mountain or the
ice.
On January 14th, at least according to a couple of websites, he
turned 90. Come out and wish him a belated Happy Birthday!
