Notes, Links, Reading, Contact, Etc.
All the wonderful line drawings are by Leland Curtis from Bulletins of the 30's.
This collection will eventually live with the Sierra Club Archives at the Bancroft Library, University of California, Berkeley. They do not have the resources to scan and catalog this material so I will do my best in the meantime.
Some Great Links:
Early Days in the Range of Light
LA Times article: The Climb of His Life
Harv Galic's: Lonely Grave in the Sierra
Bill Oliver's Tributes to Clyde, Eichorn, and Dawson
