Going back in time! The more things change the more they stay the same! Not much has changed in climbing over the years except the equipment... note the goldline rope! One still has to put one boot in front of the other to get to the summit. This climb was completed in 1978. Probably the most difficult part of this climb was the hike into base camp! Horrible steep trail full of slippery tree roots and softball size rocks... not fun! As to the climb itself, the Finger Traverse is as advertised...quite "interesting."
