Shipton exposed the route on November 8, 1951, at about 19,000 feet seeing that on his fifth digression on Stand up Everest.

James Hyslop, who cataloged them for Christie's online auction, describes the situation of the photographs.

They are doubtfully matchless. The photographs are the number one arise of the famous Sasquatch and the pictures made all of the headlines in the 1950s. They are on a par as soon as the footage which showed Bigfoot in America. But these pictures were the first real evidence that the Sasquatch may well be real. Give to had been myths that contest had seen the Sasquatch prior the 1951 sighting, but this is the first picture demonstration photograph evidence of the Sasquatch. Others prior secure fair speculated.

The auction carton consists of four of Shipton's 12-by-13-inch photographs. Two show the Sasquatch route equal human route and the two demonstration the hunt down after that to the ice axe and boot print. They are apparently the most highly affected photographs of evidence of a Sasquatch in existence.
