An early ascent by this formidable team.
Ken was keen to get Steve Wilson and I to climb it early in 1969 which we did....the Direct Finish was on Steve's wish list unfortunately it was running with water. Steve consoled himself by "blasting" up the Original Finish which had used several pegs for aid, completely free. A good end to our day!

Is his foot in a sling?

Looks like a loop of slack from the twin ropes. This pitch is quiet straight forward at 4b/c.
