Also, you don't see many people survive a case of HAPE that bad.

Wow! Great story. I recognize one of the buildings in the b & w photo behind the "Popemobile".

I bet that was a gnarly adventure.....even with the equipment we have today....it would be a gnarly adventure.......WOW thanks for sharing!!!!

Wow, what an adventure. Quite ambitious, especially for 1958. I am impressed.

I did the Yosemite High Route in May of 2005. Our trip was a piece of cake weather wise compared to their trip. Check out the picture "Starting out along the power lines near June Lake"

Sorry, the link apparently doesn't work. If you get to my gallery the picture is labeled Yosemite Border Tour

Second Attempt

I fixed it for you, cmon4day. Also fixed your photo contest entry. Have a look at this for how to post your photos to threads.

Epic!

Burping white gas...Can't be good.
