Hi Again MrLopez - nice photos you take! Not a great bivi spot if you left your boots at the bottom of the face and are climbing in shorts, T-shirt and EB's ....!! Of course you are probably way to young to remember EB's but that's what we used here in 1978. BTW Best bivi spot I ever saw was the top of El Cap Spire on the Salathe!

Remember it well, 1970 with Smiler Cuthbertson. Charged up it in big boots before electric storm hit at the top of corner. Forced bivi, struck by lightening 5 times, climbed out on verglass rock - happy days!
