Royal Robbin's

Liz joined Royal on many climbs, including the 1st ascent by a woman of the Northwest face of Half Dome, The story of the Billy Goat short and pant started at the top of Half Dome back in July 1967. It was then that we climbed the great Northwest face. This was the 1st time a woman had climbed Half Dome and in celebration, we posed for a snapshot at the top. When we saw this photo of us in the worn t-shirts and cut-off jeans, we said to each other, Maybe we had better get into the outdoor clothing business!
