Happy Camper — Tom Frost Photo 1964 | 16x24 Poster

"This hammock bivouac photograph on the Dihedral Wall helps me remember how much I loved climbing El Capitan, and how much I enjoyed this route. Clean as a whistle, the Dihedral Wall sends endless corners up through facets of massive El Capitan granite. One crack to follow. Always tipping, keeping the aspirant attentive and appreciative. It was an aid climber's dream. And that was me.

Royal had developed a strategy to use the recently developed jumar ascenders for bringing up the heavy haul bag. This system made hauling vastly easier. These would become the chosen methods for thousands of big-wall climbers to come.

Here, on our second night on the wall, my European style net hammock is suspended below Royal. A lightweight duvet and cagoule ensure a sound and comfortable night's sleep." — Tom Frost, 1964
