High Exposure, Gunks, 1968. Climbing in hiking boots, extra socks jammed behind my heels for fit, hammer in pocket: totally equipped! One or zero fixed pins clipped, hands frozen numb to the wrist and not very happy but somebody had to get the rope up, since the photographer wasn't helping out much.

What a classic situation, mongrel. Remember the time of year? Looks like there is snow.

It's not snow, but the photo was poorly exposed and to see any detail in the climber, it was lightened up a lot in printing. It was November, I think pretty late November, and like 34 degrees and blowing hard. It was anything but the casual but fun High E we know and love, definitely full value, old style.
