Early Eric
On the South Arête route in May 1979; a young Eric Sandbo checks his gear after providing one of the belays for the SAC Mountaineering Class.

Eric SandboWhat a stud!

Voted 10/10

Damn, he's cute! Was that the day I inspired Lyle with my encouraging words about rappelling?

I think the trip with Lyle was a couple of years later; wasn't Barry in his class?

I wish I'd climbed that route in snowy conditions...looks really fun. How was the hand traverse slab, was it icy? :D

We brought a SAC climbing class up it, it was snow covered and they mostly walked across it. If I have a photo maybe I would post it. Link here.
