Ken Gobalet and Bruce Kinnison

On our most recent episode of theDIHEDRAL Podcast we were joined by two legends; Ken Gobalet and Bruce Kinnison. Our friend and vet of the show, MIT and American Alpine Club’s own Dave Custer get’s all the credit for putting this session together, and it was an honor to have him join us as a co-host for this episode.

Ken and Bruce are known among other things for putting up first ascents in Tuolumne over 55 years ago. Their routes are still well documented and well climbed. The history that they bring to this episode is among the best conversations that we’ve had the privilege to share.

When it comes to California climbing there might not be a more beautiful area to ascend, and to hear about the development of climbing in Tuolumne from a pair of guys who were there from the start is a true honor.

This is without a doubt one of out most memorable shows with two of the classiest and most accommodating guests we could have asked for.

We hope you enjoy listening, and are grateful for time.

A huge thanks to Dave for helping us out, and another huge thanks to both Ken and Bruce for bringing their experiences and the history of Tuolumne into light!
