Description

For decades, Chuck Haraway worked as a Colorado lineman, mostly in the area west of Denver. The country there is mountainous and rugged. Ten thousand foot peaks abound. Much of the line work for him was in the backcountry, where lines were maintained by hiking to and then climbing up the 40-foot utility poles to service them.

This segment actually has two stories I think you'll enjoy.

It happens that our interviewee is an exceptional athlete. He's competed in many triathlons, including the full Ironman in Hawaii. He's directed triathlons in the Denver area. And the 77-year old has cycled up and down Lookout Mountain thousands of times.
