From WWR
|
• Vern Tejas made the first successful solo winter ascent of Mt. McKinley in Alaska and the first solo ascent of Mt. Vinson in Antarctica. He is the first Alaskan to have climbed all Seven Summits, and once climbed all seven twice in 365 days. He was the lead climber on the Mount Vaughan Antarctic Expedition, 1993 - 94.
• Marty Raney is 30-year logger, log builder, and stone mason. Marty has guided ten times on McKinley and climbed in most of Alaska and Canada. Marty usually entertains everyone on the mountain with his music. He always takes either his guitar or banjo and has a CD, Strummin from the Summit, featuring himself and Vern. Marty’s wife and four kids also climb.
Though not actually recorded on the summit of Denali, "Strummit From The Summit" features Alaskan climbers Vernon Tejas and Marty Raney who have jammed on glaciers all over the world. June 3, 1995, Vern and Marty played briefly on the summit of Denali (Mt.McKinley).The cover shot for this CD was taken by a climber from Denver, Colorado.Tejas is a mountain guide best known for the first solo winter ascent of Denali during which he made the rare concession to carry a harmonica instead of his
homemade fiddle, the pack-ready Strata Vernius. Raney is a song-writer, carpenter, and
all around Alaskan hardguy. The CD was engineered and mixed by Stu Schulman, and
recorded at The Little Room Studio in Anchorage, Alaska.
