How should I do it? All I can think of is to hang my camera above me and use a remote. Any body done something like this? Or have a better idea?

Have your big wall crab do it??

If you come across another party/climber, you could also see if you can bother them for a shot or two

I think this is another question for PTPP! [hint]

You can allways fall back on "exposure" only shots...with your aiders flying in the wind 1000 feet off the deck
