There was a lot to discuss in Camp 4 and no lack of opinions. Early 80s (Art Higby, Scott Woodruff, Olaf Mitchell) <br />Notice the coolers and food bags hanging from the trees for bear protection.

Yellow Wall early 80s.<br />A long, leader fall right at dark resulted in this climber spending a pathetic night 100' above his partner with only half the food and bivy gear. It was amazing to witness them raising and lowering stuff from their haul bag with head lamps. Their comment was: "We had considered this as a possibility, and dismissed it as impossible!"<br />Photo: Olaf Mitchell.
