when I climbed the Black Dike with Mike Brochu and Michael Franklin eight years after the first ascent, it was still considered a hard test piece then; it ranks as one of my favorite mountain memories, but I can not imagine doing it 50 year later. Hats off to Bouchard, who must be a real stud at 70!
