Henry Barber:

Steve was one of the most visionary climbers I ever climbed with. He put up hard climbs that were ahead of their time by a decade. I was known more for scary onsights, but his climbs compared to mine were futuristic by 20 years harder than anything I did. It took over a decade for Steve’s 'Psycho Roof' in Eldorado Canyon to be repeated. [2]

Bill Price 4

Very talented Yosemite climber active in the late 1970s and early 1980s. Whilst not a high profile name his ascents were as hard as any at the time.

I always thought Bill was one of the most talented climbers I ever met. Great guy also.
