• Remembering Kyle Dempster

  It is with much sadness that we say goodbye to Kyle Dempster, one of our climbing ambassadors and a dear friend to many of us in the BD family. Kyle, along with his climbing partner Scott Adamson, disappeared in late August while attempting Ogre II in northern Pakistan. After an exhaustive, close-proximity helicopter search of the mountain yielded no signs of Kyle or Scott, the extremely difficult decision was made to call off the search. Kyle and Scott are not coming home, but their spirit, stoke and smiles will live on in the hearts of many. We, the employees of Black Diamond Equipment, send our deepest condolences to the friends and families of Kyle and Scott—we grieve with you. We asked one of Kyle’s close friends and former BD employee, Andy Anderson, to write the following tribute in celebration of Kyle’s vibrant and passionate life. Mehr erfahren >
