So I’m reading The Climb by Anatoli Boukreev and I’ve gotten to the picture inserts and saw this one of Sandy Hill Pittman with Rob Hall in the background. It says unidentified climber but I was just wondering if anyone with more knowledge on the subject could possibly identify who it is based on outfit colors or such?

This tragedy fascinates me and I’m trying to understand everything about it to understand why two incredibly seasoned climbers made such terrible mistakes leading up to May 10. Thanks in advance!
