Fellow climber, , praised Hartley in his obituary for The Alpine Journal, His personal qualities were of the highest. Able to converse on many subjects, he knew when to appreciate silence. Under intolerable weather conditions he never lost his head or temper. His natural courtesy avoided offence when his intellect forced him to disagree with others. On rock he was determined with an elegant, almost dainty, technique which served him well on the gritstone climbs that he pioneered. (en)
