Kia ora Bob, This was a pretty hot button for awhile here in NZ. Personally I don't think it is a bad way to honour Sir Ed - after all these climbs in the Cook area are where he honed his craft and opened up the world to himself and NZ climbing. I think a strong case could be made for the same consideration being given to Harry Ayres. I had a work conference up in Auckland yesterday and the keynote speaker was Graham Henry and it was an awesome 90 minutes. I feel far more confident just quietly that he has the AB's on the right path.Cheers,Robb |
