"Doing an all-female ascent, the first all-female ascent in fact, was not a significant consideration: I simply knew Bev much better than any of the men interested." 'Walls Without Balls' was printed as 'Untitled' after the AAJ refused to use Hechtel's original title. References[1] https://publications.americanalpineclub.org/articles/12197406200/Untitled |
