Roger Strong made his catch king crab fishing so he could ski and climb the rest of the year. His life was forged by sea and steel, commercial fishing hardening him for both alpinism and captainship.

As he says, it was some of the best and worst times.

But to continue the metaphor, the metallurgy of life also requires tempering, annealing, and healing too.

In this episode, we chat about:

  • 🧊 Life and times of commercial crab fishing
  • 🧊 Establishing mixed lines in Washington, including the first M8, M9, and M11
  • 🧊 Why having a child was the best thing that ever happened to him
  • 🧊 Learning to smell the moss

"Being part of that environment is as important, if not more important than the accomplishment — humans just put too much value on the summit, too much value on numbers.

I don't know what the difference between 15 a, b, c, and d is, but that's for those people that can do that. And so is their ascent more important than my soloing 5.6, 5.7, 5.8? Maybe it is to them, but, it's the movement, it's the touching the stone, it's the swinging of the ice tool, looking for the perfect swing, looking for the perfect amount of footwork, and it's just this, I'm just always looking for."
