Milt's son Jason here. Thank you for that tribute Sam, and yes it has always been his choice to free climb, my younger brother and I had adopted that method for all of our years of climbing as well, it just seemed less of a hassle. But I can guarantee that from now on any climb my brother or I make, will be 100% tie off always. This lesson that our father has taught us, is one that will not soon be forgotten. This has just proven to us that even the most experienced climber such as the invincible father of ours is susceptible to accidents. No matter how much experience or how strong you think you are, gravity is more experienced and a lot stronger. Please, please always remember safety first, we don't need any more of these accidents happening any where, much less in the amateur world.
with sincere regards,
Jason Jensen
son of N5IA.
