Royal Robbins is one of the most influential, pivotal personalities in the Americal climbing scene. A pioneer Yosemite bigwall climber. He was a name dropped onto conversations related to big wallclimbing during its golden era, 1950s, '60s and '70s. He's wife Liz Robbins was a frequent climbing partner, making them the real royal couple of the 'big walls of Yosemite."
"Royal Robbins is a man for all seasons. In the spring of his life he was wise beyond his years, adventurous and ever seeking harmony between man and nature. Now in the autumn of his life he is a seasoned man of wisdom, filled with character, integrity and light in his eyes that rivals the sun."
— Tom Forst, Climber, Hardware Designer, Photographer, founder of Frostworks.
"Many people have turned to the mountains to escape from the competitiveness of normal life. But competition can be found at the highest levels of any human activity, including climbing. In the 1969s, many of us thought about taking the next step. Royal took that next step more often than anyone."
— Glen Denny, Climber, photographer, Filmmaker.
