Old competition photo

Found this old photo while cleaning my office. 4 world champions in this shot. I think it may have been from St Louis?

You are getting old Mark.

Getting? Lol Been there, but am not feeling it to be honest. Still feel lucky to be here.

Hello, Mark!
I feel a little sheepish, asking you for this, but if possible could you put names to the faces going left to right? For those of us who are not as aware as perhaps we should be. Thanks for posting the photo, and thanks for your time. Tim

At 55, only thing keeping me young is climbing and running after 8 and 11 year old energizer bunnies.

I don't know, 69 has been rough on me so far.

Wow, @oldoakman, you are still a working climber, are you not? I think I have another new hero! Just amazing, to me. Congratulations on such a long career! Sincerely, Tim.

Not every day TimBr but enough to try to keep in shape. That being said, I am not, nor never was a prima donna, Just an average climber. It is still nice to be able to get off the ground once in a while.
