That's Bill climbing the Muir Snowfield, with a train of other skiers and climbers stretching upward in the distance. Bill looks somewhat lightly laden, doesn't he? Well, I was skinning up on my trusty randonnee skis, carrying his snowboard on my pack, since it was his first time doing this sort of thing. I happened to be in fairly good shape then, since I had just skied from the summit of Rainier two weeks earlier.
