As I consider whether this is the right time, for my annual re-reading of the brilliant 1950s climbing novel, ONE GREEN BOTTLE, I came across two interesting tidbits. First, the novel has been reprinted in an inexpensive kindle edition. Second, I dug up this neat quote on the FOOTLESS CROW website.
"A sport is advanced by the handful of people who do it brilliantly, but it is kept sweet and sane by the great numbers of the mediocre, who do it for fun."
