Though I had known of Nick online from lurking around Australian climbing sites, I didn't
realize I had met him briefly at the gym until I saw the photo when reading these
reports. I often saw him there. He was the guy who looked a little too big to be climbing
that route that was so long and steep and just seeing him up there was an inspiration.

I chatted with briefly a few times, just about climbs there in the gym, his excitement
was infectious and he had an obvious passion for climbing that I can only imagine would
be applied with equal vigor to other parts of his life.

He'll be missed by others like me who didn't know him by name, just by his friendly face
and head of curly hair and the happiness he shared at practicing his craft.

As everyone else here has said, this has made me really sad and I wish only comfort
and love for his family and close friends in this time.

Nevermind that he was crushing it!
