Actually, given the quality of “cuisine” that the troops were eating in the field, anything that could cover up the taste of weevils, maggots, hard-tack, salt pork and beef, moldy bacon, corn meal, half-sprouted spuds… would be in high demand. At least you could douse the foul food with something to cover it up.

Actually, the water drank was directly responsible for many of the casualties.

Almost time for these little buzz bombs to reappear…

Saw a fun fact about them… they weigh about as much as a nickel. To maintain their metabolism they need to take in 5-8 calories a day.

Scaled up to human size, they would require about 850,000 calories a day.

That is 188 large pizzas (with pineapple) and 188 2 L bottles of Coke a day.

He was a great endurance athlete.

It was an easy 5.10a basalt finger crack tried at the end of a long day. He was new to cracks at that level too. All his pro zippered out and a biner failed while open. He failed to place his pro properly. And he was using stiff QuickDraws rather than loose slings that had some give and won’t walk pro or do funny things to biners. He stacked mistakes and it caught up with him.

I stopped using QuickDraws in the early 90s outside of vertical or overhanging bolted climbs.

He was not a 5.12 climber either. Maybe a 5.10.

Ok.

Either way, dude was a badass.

Sport climbing in neither. 😎
