In 2005 I spent the two days of the annual Frost Valley Olympics walking around camp, intercepting ecstatic participants and recording the noises of this annual throat-challenging event. Then I did some editing and created a collage of sounds. Here it is in mp3 format. China ("A BILLION VOICES!") was the loudest team that year, as I recall, but that group did not win the coveted Spirit award.
