Great news!
Same great report from my old D22 racing buddy. He's like 5'7", looks like a Greek statue carving with zero body fat, and has been in Boulder for decades as a senior instructor with all the certifications for Colorado Mountain School. He's one of those insane people that send pictures of him dangling off a rock a million feet in the air all over this side of the planet that makes me nauseous. Genetics got him, but he is already back hiking and chomping at the bit to climb.
Fabulous that everyone I know that went through this came out so much better.
