The Hyatt test
Every popular name lives one long story — a climb, a peak, a slow settling back. Swade's later chapters haven't been written yet, so we borrowed them: Hyatt climbed just as high around 1963, and its whole arc is on record. Line the two peaks up, and Hyatt's path sketches the road Swade is walking now.
