Atikokan Pit photo

Great photos of the wall taken in the fall of 1983. The water at this time was some 25 meters below. By 1984 it was 5 meters below the bottom of the cliff. By 1996 there was a salmon farm in the pit, and this wall was underwater. This wall (Cant recall what we named it) had over 20 bolted routes, and finger cracks. All the hanging belays, bolts, pitons, slings and such are now underwater. It was indeed an interesting area to climb, and one that is now lost forever!
