A big part of my research for any UK climber ends up being first, <a href='http://climbing-history.org'>climbing-history.org</a> run by Remus Knowles, but then immediately after I start reading endless threads on <a href='http://ukclimbing.com'>UKclimbing.com</a>. While there, I often bump into an authoritative voice who obviously absolutely LOVES climbing history. Ted Kingsnorth. 
I first came across Ted’s name when he made an extended effort to climb Just Do It at Smith Rock - a route whose history we detailed last season and I’m sure Ted’s descriptions of the route influenced the episode. Ted made multiple trips to Smith from the UK over 3 years before succeeding, and it’s that determination and belief that made me take notice. 
I could have reached out to a lot of people to talk about the influence of Jerry Moffatt, but as you’ll hear in this conversation, Ted was absolutely the right person.
