Early Worm, 5.10d

Early Worm, 5.10d

5th-6th Pitches- 52m- 5.10d/ We combined these last two pitches with a 70m rope. The last pitch was the crux of the climb in my opinion. Maybe I was tired and my fingers hurt too much, but I thought the 5th pitch was as difficult as any of the others, even though Dave has it a bit softer on his topo. Move up and left over the arête. Watch out for loose holds here. Continue up via several hard moves to the left of the arête to a small ledge. The sixth pitch continues up to a fairly easy finger ledge that runs right a few meters. The ground right below and above the finger ledge was tough for the grade. Finish off to the top. Early Worm, 5.10d, 6 Pitches, Mount Bourgeau, Banff National Park, July, 2009
