Thanks Humzoo. You're correct, I can't remember with absolute certainty what happened back then in 1962. But my cautious approach was also designed to allow for those more intimately involved to offer their perspective on events if they chose.

With regard to Ted Batty, does anyone on Chockstone have current contact details for him?

The last I heard, he was dealing with some health issues. Ted was always an unassuming person but it would be great to have him talk about his climbing days -- such as Lieben, Watchtower Crack, and so forth. Maybe climbing historian Bruce Cameron could interview him?
