Description
On the summit of Denali, Alaska, highest peak in North America, in Denali National Park, July 2, 1958. L-R: Smoke Blanchard, William Hackett, and Michael Kennedy (about 19 years old). Jake Breitenbach, suffering from altitude sickness, is lying down at right. Jake was later killed in the American Mt. Everest Expedition in 1963, when a serac fell over, burying him. My Kelty Pack is in the foreground. This transparency required several hours of work to restore it, meticulously eliminating mold and fungal spots, as well as restoring the original colors.
