My father took some movies of my sister walking along the top of this wall (I was holding her hand and walking beside the wall) This was so that he could have something to focus on for panning the movie.

At some point my sister dropped her sweater down on the scree below the wall. She was quite nearsighted and my parents did not know that she needed glasses - at the point she could not even see the mountains. So I went to get her sweater for her.
