ABOVE Eric Bissell and Jane Jackson on Long Ledge while climbing the Salathe Wall on El Capitan in Yosemite National Park, CA. RIGHT Nico Rivas leads pitch 18, a 5.12b crux on Positive Affect, a 19-pitch, 3,000-foot route on Arco Iris in the Cochamo Valley of Chile. Paula Salguero and JB Haab belay. This is a route I established with Chance Traub in 2013. FAR RIGHT My brother Garret Smith shot this photo of the two of us over a decade ago. We lived up at the Mt. Shasta Ski Park in northern California for a summer—my brother was a lift mechanic, and I was a guide on Mt. Shasta. We began the summer both living in the Toyota Dolphin, but then he upgraded, moving into the bigger camper. We were high living. Garret taught me everything I know about photography and put me on the photography path I’m on today. 092 The Ski Journal
