Armed Robbery, 5.10c

[ Sizes: Orig | Large | Med | Small | Thumb ]

Armed Robbery – 70’- 5.10c/
A very hard 5.10 in my opinion. Depends on the size of your hands I suppose. Also, this basalt is quite slippery until full on winter sets in, so if you can’t get your toes in the crack, this pitch is quite painful on the knuckles. Thin jamming for most of the route eventually opens up to much better hands and fists. There is a dual crack to the right that I used for the finish, but is not necessary. Small to medium pro.

""You cannot stay on the summit forever; you have to come down again. So why bother in the first place? Just this: What is above knows what is below, but what is below does not know what is above. One climbs, one sees. One descends, one sees no longer, but one has seen. There is an art of conducting oneself in the lower regions by the memory of what one saw higher up. When one can no longer see, one can at least still know."" --Rene Daumal
