Brian and I were frequent rope mates on an ascent of some mountain. One in the Arthurs Pass area was Mt Franklin. On that trip he lost his wrist watch which he realized when we got to the summit. Descending, I was careful to locate our last rest stop at a prominent rock and there was his watch with a broken wrist band. Fond memories. My best support to Barbara.
