Bought my first helmet in '78 in the Tetons,,an orange Joe Brown fibreglass with that yellowing foam inside.,,,got good use out of it immediately with a 300ft. solo climb tumbling, sliding fall in the Tetons that week. Stickers and some painted on crap, plus a long raccoon tail. Still have the crusty foam cracking and falling out now...Retired it years ago before I started going to the Red to climb,got a new light helmet cuz it was just too heavy and hot in summertime. Tail on it was my 'trademark' for decades on the rocks.
