King met his wife Doris on a climb with the Seattle Mountaineers. He said he knew he had met his match because they both loved to travel and weren't afraid to rough it. In their mid-sixties, the couple set off an adventures from Italy to India, literally "without reservations," sleeping everywhere from bare floors to buses. Now in their eighties, they are still traipsing around the world and having a great time.
