Detailed Product Description
Glen Denny was part of the first group of pioneering climbers who created modern big wall climbing in Yosemite Valley California in the 1960s. His book YOSEMITE IN THE SIXTIES has been a tremendous success, and this is the poster for the book. It was taken by Denny on the first ascent of the Dihedral Wall on El Capitan in 1962 (VI 5.8 A3, 2,700', Baldwin Cooper-Glen Denny, 1962).
 
The SuperTopo website describes the climb:
 
'Moderate difficulty and distance from other crowded routes have recently boosted Dihedral Wall's popularity. The climbing is as hard as the Zodiac and easier than Cosmos. Although the first five pitches lean to the left, rumors of long stretches of mandatory left-handed nailing are exaggerated.
 
Characterizing the lower part of the route are large pin scars that take sawed angles (often hand-placed), nuts and aliens. The middle of the route steepens while the last part follows large chimneys and gullies —easy to free climb but hideous to haul.'
 
The Poster is printed on very heavy paper, and is 20' wide x 36' high. The image is 17'x25', and not shown in the scan is a section below the photo that has the name of Glen Denny's book, and it is where Denny has autographed the poster for us.
 
Postage on posters is $5 USA media mail, $6 Priority, $10 foreign airmail, for any quantity of posters. We will charge that in addition to any books you buy, after check out.
