boys which had been in the area
for three days.
Monday afternoon 24 of the
boys, accompanied by a camp
leader, went up to a supply camp
3,000 feet up on Mt. Temple.
Eleven of the boys decided they
would like to go higher before
calling it a day and they were
granted permission by the camp
leader although warned to be
careful and to take their time.
The boys climbed up to between
9,500 and 10,000 feet and found it
would be impossible to go any
higher. They had just started the
return trip when the avalanche
occurred, about 4 p.m.
