Escargot Climb

[ Sizes: Orig | Med | Small | Thumb ]

The Escargot 6 pitch 5.7 corner climb of the north face of Mount Norquay, Banff National Park, May, 2006
End of the first pitch. I ran this out a litte further than 60 meters forcing my partner to simul-climb a little. Real easy ground here, but maybe you want to start a little higher.

""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
