The world has lot another one of those shining lights of decency in an increasingly troubled world. Pete (aka Hueco Pete), play an integral role in the golden age of American bouldering, hosting countless world-class climbers in the attic of his store, and later in tents pitched on the property. My first introduction came in late December of 1997, when I was sitting by the stove, warming myself on a cold morning. He said, "Like that fire?" "Yes, thanks." "Well, go get some more wood." He was a great man, and will be missed by anyone who ever had the pleasure of meeting him.
