After a long illness, Eric Bjornstad, pioneer of \u201cdesert\u201d climbing in Colorado and author of 1988 Desert Rock climbing guide, died in Utah. He did great team with real myths like Fred Beckey, Yvon Chouinard, \u00a0Harvey Carter and Galen Rowell.
\nHe was the real emblem of \u00a0a life lived free, like a perfect American free climber and did a lot of different work, draftsman, piano salesman, photo processor, gardener, bartender, dump truck driver or tree topper, just to have all time to climb.
\nHis famous ascents were the first one on the northeast buttress of Mt. Slesse in Canada or the first Grade VI big-wall route on Stawamus Chief in Squamish. Then his attentions went to the wonderful towes of desert like Fisher Towers, Zeus and Moses in Canyonlands, and Chinle Spire on the Navajo Reservation.
