Christo and Jeanne-Claude assembled and directed a team of 15 professional rock climbers and 110 local art and architecture student workers, as well as Australian artists and teachers. Over a period of four weeks, they wrapped about one and a half miles of coast and cliffs up to 85 feet high with 1,000,000 square feet of light beige erosion-control fabric and 35 miles of rope. The monumental project was completed on October 28, 1969, and the work remained on view for 10 weeks.
