You did a great job putting that video together, Britt. Thank you so very much.

Re: Dancesatmoonrise Tribute Video
Great job with the video! Although I never had the opportunity to meet or hike with him, his trip reports and stunning photographs always made me smile and gave me a leg up when heading out into the mountains. Admittedly, the video got me choked up a bit, seeing how happy he looked and all the friends that he had to share great memories with is quite inspiring.
My deepest condolences to Jim's family and friends and all those that didn't get the chance to meet such a great character in our 14er community. May his memory forever live on!

Re: Dancesatmoonrise Tribute Video
Thanks for putting this up Britt. I enjoyed being there Saturday for the Garden of the Gods gathering and reception afterwards. It was emotional but uplifting to hear everyone's input on their experiences with Jim. Jim was a tremendously multifaceted guy. ER Doctor, Jazz Pianist and Guitar player, Mountaineer, Rock Climber, Photographer, Road Bicyclist.....and he was not just a participant in those activities, but very very good at them. I'll miss him.
Re: Dancesatmoonrise Tribute Video
Very well done, Britt. Thanks for the wonderful tribute to Jim.

Re: Dancesatmoonrise Tribute Video
Wow, what a great video and tribute! That man had one infectious smile, you could just tell he loved and celebrated the time he had on this earth. I never got the chance to meet him but, like many others, I always enjoyed reading his trip reports. To his family and those of you who knew him, I am deeply sorry for your loss.

I never knew that Jim possessed that musical talent. Sorry to see him go. Thanks Britt.

Re: Dancesatmoonrise Tribute Video
A lot of depth there, wish I had met him.
Here is a quote from a funny PM he sent me regarding mountaineering and keeping your head when things get difficult.

That's for some of you who may have climbed with Jim. From his descriptions, he really enjoyed his climbing partners. Wish I could have been one of them.These young guys, they make your ego come out, and you want to be "badass" just like them - and with a lot more experience on them, often you can - but it's easy to lose your head.
