"Got tight last night on absinthe and did knife tricks. Great success shooting the knife into the piano. The woodworms are so bad and eat hell out of all furniture that you can always claim the woodworms did it."

South slopesJuly 1982. We picked our way up and toward the left from the cars on mostly 2nd class terrain with occasional 3rd class pitches. Views were blocked by good-weather clouds all around us. Glissaded down one of the two prominent snow couloirs west of our ascent route. Me being a chicken, I was trying to brake hard with my left hand, and when the ice axe spike caught either some ice or a rock under the snow, a searing pain shot through my shoulder. The shoulder has never been the same since, and I fear putting too much weight on it to this day.
