Cory Hall passes away climbing Piramide, in Peru
|
Cory Hall was a good man, and as solid as climbers come. For those of you who didn't know him, it is a shame you won't ever get the chance to. For those of you who did, you know what we all have lost. |

Here is one of my fondest memories with Cory: |

Cory Hall Climbing at Hatun Machay Peru.
I only got to know Cory for a short period of time, but he was the kind of guy who really made an impression! We first met in Ecuador, then Huarez Peru again. It was strange that our paths had crossed several times in one trip, but every time they did it was a pleasure. I enjoyed the stories he told about all the cool stuff he had seen and done. Ive met a bunch of climbers in my life, but he was definitely the most memorable! I wont forget when he was telling us about climbing la Esfine. He said they had gone off route when climbing, and he had 50 foot run outs on some of the pitches. It sure scared the shit out of me! But he just said na you guys will do good. This pictures is from the last day we climbed together. Really bummed we werent able to tie back up and hit the rock some more. You will be missed man, but Im glad you loved the life you lived. RIP Cory Hall |
