Most of us are storytellers, trading tales to fill a tent on any given night. Keith Spencer was the opposite: a man who made silence his native language. In an era of oversharing and noise, Keith lived with the discipline of a monk, the grit of a soldier, and the austerity of solitude. Climbing with him was a kind of meditation, a reminder that meaning often lives between the words.
