Chris Owen on the Freezer Burn Wall long before it was called that, and sans bolts - 1980's
ID 106498932 · · Copyright Violation?
This was taken in 1984 way above the Voices Wall. That year I would grab some of my Cross Country buddies and skip practice, drive up to Williamson and get as much climbing in before it got dark. I taught them how to do a hip belay and we went for it. Those were some fun times.
