... that American painter and lithographer Bolton Brown was the first person to climb Mount Clarence King?

As far as I can see, this nomination is a bit late. Article was created Dec. 11[1] Am I missing something? Otherwise, this is a nice little article. The Interior (Talk) 22:33, 20 December 2011 (UTC)

Whoops, looks like I did miss the move from AfC. Will start real review. One thing I notice right away is that there are a few colloquialisms that should be rewritten - "stomping grounds" (Before Woodstock section), "footed the bill" "see eye to eye" (Byrdcliffe section). Sentence beginning "Along with..." in first section is clause/comma heavy, should be rewritten for readability. The Interior (Talk) 23:52, 20 December 2011 (UTC)

Howdy, The Interior. Just wanted to let you know the above edits have been made to Bolton Brown. I'm new to Wikipedia, a wee overwhelmed by the ins and outs of where-what-goes and whom-to-tell-what, but everyone is very helpful! Thankee, Pastrychick

Howdy, Pastrychick, and welcome to the neighbourhood! I know it's a bit of a labyrinth, don't hesitate to ask for help with things. Thanks for an interesting and well put together addition. Your revision looks good, hook reference verified, article is well-cited.
