Dreambed, 5.11b
6th Pitch- 35m- 5.10c/ We both thought this pitch might contain the crux move of the route even though it is graded lower. Trend out left via easy climbing following the bolt line as it leads up to a steep slab wall with shallow grooves. Make hard face moves up and equally difficult traverse moves left across steep slab until you are below a deeper groove which has an obvious finger lock hold. If you place a C3 in here you will no doubt impede the hold, thus better to run it out at this point. Take the finger lock and make a large move getting your feet with our hands as the slab directly below the finger lock crack is broken off making it quite slick (non-textured). Continue up to a nice belay ledge.

""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
