"George Anderson, who used to work on the construction of a road in the Yosemite Park, turned his construction, a hammer and a drill, into a climbing system. With the help of eyebolts pounded in small holes in the rock, he achieved the first aided ascent of the Yosemite climbing history."

"Camp 4, a former Indian campsite, has been invested by Yosemite climbers. Often threatened of dismantlement by local authorities, Climbers have fought many times to keep this hallowed place."

"Royal Robin is the first to succeed the northwest’s face of Half Dome, setting new standards and starting years of rivalry with Harding."

"Robbin, Frost and Pratt ascend the soutwest face of el Cap in six days, the Sallathe Wall, without fixed ropes, setting once again new standards for the climbing community. They take a definite lead over Harding when they ascend, in 1964, the North America Wall"

"3 years later, after walking away from International competitions, Lynn Hill frees the Nose. This ascent is still a reference for women climbing, but also for the whole climbing world."

"Honnold, considered today as the best soloist in the world, set a new sensational record by soloing Half Dome, El Cap and Watkins in a day."
