Just wanted to pass on my thoughts to the family and friends of [Adventurer, climber, fund-raiser] Ian McKeever [above, who died on Mount Kilimanjaro, Tanzania, yesterday].
Ian was a pretty incredible, inspirational but very human guy who was ambitious (in the best sense) and crazy (in the very best sense).
I will never forget climbing with him because of his enthusiasm and courage. But the thing I will remember most was his kindness. Goodbye Ian.
