Does anyone know the whereabouts of Chris Massey and/or Andy Hill, who were both active MUMC members in the 1970s I think?

Any help very gratefully received.

I don’t recognise the names, so they most probably moved on from MUMC before I joined in ‘74.

yeah, probably just before your time, Mark.

American here.  Not certain it is the same Chris Massey, but I climbed with a Brit with that name in Yosemite in 1987 (I think that was the year) along with another Brit friend of mine named John Gill.  Chris was a great guy, very funny.  After Yosemite he was going to Alaska.  I was very saddened to read several months later that he had died on Denali.

Thank you for your response. Sadly I believe it to be the same Chris Massey.

hi Phil - Chris (CAHM) was a very good friend of mine and he and his companions died on the Cassin ridge in 1989 i'm afraid. he left a big gap both at Reading Mountaineering Club where i met him and at the Lakes scene where he was very popular too. Pete
