Arthur John Butler
[edit]- ... that the scholar and mountaineer A. J. Butler disparaged "the fuss made about peak-climbing"?

New, long enough, within policy, QPQ good. Sourced quote here. Only question is the link to "first ascent" for "peak-climbing"—why? The quote appears to be referring to climbing mountains as conquests or checking off items on a list, not exactly being first to do it. czar · · 03:23, 25 June 2013 (UTC)
- Thank you for your review, Czar. I read that comment about "peak climbing" as meaning first ascents, simply because that is what nearly all the "fuss" was about at that time... However, you are right, other meanings are possible, so it is probably best to remove the link. Moonraker (talk) 15:04, 25 June 2013 (UTC)
