He poured some gasoline on the fire which also ignited his forearm, didn't seem to faze him at all.
"Boy Scout juice"
Two axe blows to a hydro pole and he had kindling for a fire.
Clearly a very resourceful Scout at that!

I can ask Gordie Smail if he has a copy when I am at Skaha in May.
I can probably dig up his phone#. Email me directly
I remember a story about Hugh and Steve hitchhiking to Yosemite during a spring school break when they were 16. Did the Nose then hitchhiked home.

Could that be an older Steve Sutton? Haven't see Steve in probably 20+ years.

No winners. The two in my photo are John Burton and Paul Piro (pronounced "Pee Row"), at Paul's house in the Kootenays. One of their feats was retreating from about 2/3 up the North American Wall of El Capitan in terrible weather (rain, snow, wind...) in spring 1971. At the time the route probably hadn't been climbed ten times. A steep, complicated business.
