There is a lengthy article in today’s New York Times about North American climbing legend Fred Beckey. It’s at http://www.nytimes.com/2008/12/16/sports/othersports/16beckey.html?_r=1

There is a link to an on-line interview.

When are Petzl etc going to get off their ass and sponsor Fred?  I mean, ANY company can have freaky 15 year olds climbing 5.15, or nubile women sweating in tank tops…but how cool would it be to have the guy who’s done the most new routes, chicks and sub-poverty-line living of all time on your team?  There are loads of young climber things but only one Fred…
