This week, we mourn the passing of David Roberts, acclaimed climber, adventurer, friend, and author. His legacy is one that has touched countless lives. Our program was fortunate to host David Roberts back in March 2016 at our local screening of the Banff Centre Mountain Film Festival here in Boone, NC. He held book signings of Alone on the Wall, a book he co-authored with Alex Honnold and spoke on some of his amazing adventures across the globe. Thank you David for your humility, spirit of adventure, grit, smile, kindness, and words. You will be missed. For us, this photo captures the spirt of his visit to Boone some 5 years ago.....
