This past season, he and his partners encountered tough questions while free climbing a 1000-meter route they renamed Peumayén. “Who does this route belong to now that our experience with it is behind us?” Jamieson reflects. “How can we become better stewards as our sport’s popularity explodes?”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center issue-feature-cover-title\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLost and Found\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center issue-feature-cover-title\" style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIn 1924, a teenage Paul Petzoldt and his friend Ralph Herron ignored a town of naysayers and climbed to the top of the Grand Teton.
