If that is indeed Doug Tompkins white hat in 3.6 (as suggested by Boo Dawg), then this helps identify the stunning blonde woman, whose delightful derriere we see: Leila Kessler. She used to hang with Tompkins and Chouinard. Set many a heart racing ...
Don't believe that is myself at far left in 4.6 at the Cohen wedding. I did, however, own a coat and tie so that is helpful.

I thought that this thread was originally billed as 'Prior to 1967'....... More interesting times!

No prizes for identifying JB in this shot. (Prior to 1967 of course.)

Jan: All OK except #7

Chris: That's not my pic, and I was in Europe that summer, so I did not attend.

Don: Pic 1: Not Jones, nor Hemple, yes to McLean and Yvon... More guesses?
Pic 3: yes to all that you guessed; who is on right? We all know him!
Pics 4, 5, 6, 8, 9: Yes
Pic 8: No

Pic 10: yes, to all but Waterbury. More guesses? Hint: This was just before the FA of Mass Assault on N. Dome.

Chris,

Yeah, sure has the right haircut - could be Schmitz.

I think the guy with his back against the tailgate is Gerughty - again, the haircut.

Hard to tell if the standing lean-in is Kor.

"Apparently the only climbers in the 60's were in Yosemite"


(1) It's a California-based website.

(2) California climbers have the biggest rocks.

Come on, Reilly, that ;-) won't get through to all STers. They might think you're serious.

Correct on Schmitz in Pic 3.

Pic 1: Not the back of Gerughty's head. This truck was headed for L.A. one late Sunday afternoon. I don't know who it was, but I think it was another Scottish climber. Give away hint: The guy talking to Yvon is older than and has more FA's than Kor and is still alive.

Guido knows #7.
