Sounds like Abromeit was a badass. Hopefully, I can die of natural causes while enjoying the beauty of the mountains too.

Whoa. All but grew up next door to Doug...
Was a legend in the best sense of the word and would have been the first to deny that title.
RIP.
Is he from Sandpoint? He looks really familiar, like recently familiar. I think I ran into him at SV this year.Quote:
