As to the identity of the David Evans/Charlotte Dome mystery man ...
This is definitely Ken Hamm.
He and Joe Kiss rented a house on Sierra Madre Boulevard in Pasadena, near where it bends South, after crossing under the freeway. Technically, it may have been a Corson Street address. Then Karl/The Boxer took Joe's room. I rented a third room in the house, staying with Karl and Ken for a period of time around 1981 or 1982.
Joe was a union house painter and had painted a 2 foot high gray silhouette of a climber coiling a rope, standing on the thick gray craftsman style floor trim of the living room of our climber's pad. His inspiration was taken from a classic silhouette which can be seen on the cover of Gaston Rebuffat's THE MONT BLANC MASSIF, The 100 Finest Routes.
So, speaking of silhouettes, I recognize Ken's profile in the picture above. I see his sloped chin, his sideburns, and the way his brown hair stood up in a haphazard bouffant.
Also, I made that pack he is wearing. Russ and I rented a Consew industrial sewing machine from a friend of my mother's. It was a mess, and Russ, being very good with mechanical stuff, figured out how to get the timing right, but it was funky.
After that, spring of 1982, we rented a better machine and wound up procrastinating with our allotted time. We pulled an all-nighter to finish all the packs and haul bags we would then take to Yosemite, so we could sell them for lunch money. At 2 AM, we were on our last needle. Bullwinkle deemed everything sewn after 10 PM pure crap!
I'll never forget the burgundy fabric which you see on that pack in the picture. Sewed up a variety of custom (read: prototype/experimental) packs and haul bags with that burgundy Cordura. In the pack Ken is carrying, I was trying to replicate the contour of a Karrimor Whillans Alpinist rucksack.
I had pulled the pattern from Marco Milano's Karimor. Marco hailed from the Sierra East Side. And no, Marco was definitely not a Buggerer either!

apparently, Russ is spreading all kinds of misinformation
who exactly were the Sheep Buggerers?
who was the leader?
who did the most sheep calling?
and where is the damn list of nick names for Bruckman?

Craig, there are only 5 original buggerers:
Russ- The Fish (ring leader)
Greg- The Driver
Doug- Moonie, The Moon, The Moonfuzz, or just plain Fuzzy
Kent- The Manx
Karl- The German
All went to Pasadena High School and then on to Pasadena CC.
Many of the sayings came from black kids in Pasadena and T.V.
Russ was beyond hilarious in the day...lots of good stomach ache laughs.

What Vik said. Five of them Buggers, and that is that.
Hi Vikki, nice to hear from you, especially that bit you just laid on us about you and Karen! Ha ha.
Cheers,
Roy

Russ is still hilarious in person, and on the key board
But he plays hard ball when pressured
I kid that he looks like he's top roping Gunsmoke.
and in turn, his response is that Fry is chortling man flesh!
Wow
Tough crowd!

I never saw the Gunsmoke comment.... the gargling and enjoyment of gargling manflesh by Craig was unprompted. Just the facts at the time. It's ok to be yourself Craig... no one except the Boxer cares anymore. He is still bent on how you claim the FA of the "Fry Problem" when everyone knows the Boxer did it first. He may never get over it, or your roaming hands on the torso of his youth at Dennys.
I still don't know the lawoman, but always glad to hear EE is quite the jackhammer in the sack. That is what the Driver told me too... so it must be true.

Well if facts are what you're looking for, then I will have to set you straight
No man flesh has ever been man handled by me, I really like vagina.
Fry Problem? what year and month was the Boxer ascent?
We can check the records and compare the dates

Jeepers, you feel that? Kind of warming up in here, what with all the excitement.
Here, I'll fling open the window for some fresh air and a few more pictures:
I give you The MoonFuzz, backed up by the MussWadd™™™Walling, preening for and firing Pinched Rib,
When it was still rated 5.7, felt like 5.9 -and was no longer referred to as Death Dike.
(lawn chair was happenin’)
The Moon, with polished aplomb, sauntering up Pinched Rib.
(prolly the only route they did that day: ask SewellyMon, they are his photos after all)
... a days work, well done.
Nothing more to see here, move along ...
