Alpine Endeavors Guide Cam Pavone turned 47 on November 9th. Each year Cam climbs as many pitches as he is old (in years). Two days ago Cam lead all 47 pitches himself and had a support crew along in the Trapps to help him out. His day began at about midnight on the 9th and he climbed continuously until about dark the following night.
I caught up with him at about pitch 27, on top of the climb Baby just outside of the Uberfall. He was going strong and still in high spirits after nearly 12 hours on the go. Here are some pictures from his big day.
