Opis:
Big Sandy Ledge on Half Dome is iconic and often the first ledge to be slept on for aspiring big wall climbers. I spent a cold and tiring night on Big Sandy a couple years back and it was memorable to say the least. Chris and I climbed The Nose of El Capitan and Regular Northwest Face of Half Dome in the same day and I thought I would pop out my phone to get a quick ledge tour of big Sandy for my second time on it.
