Generosity, 5.9

11th Pitch- 60m- 5.9/ This is no doubt the most sustained pitch of the climb. Avoid the chimney to the left as well as the arête direct. Instead climb right of the arête to avoid bad rock. Place gear at will, looking to move back left over and onto the arête via an exposed move or two. Above will be really solid rock and more of those deep water runnels through 5 bolts. A sustained pitch, but solid feet and hands the whole way. Generosity, 5.9, 13 Pitches, EEOR (East End of Mount Rundle), Canadian Rockies, August, 2008

A nice pitch

Dow's description of this pitch is good. I headed up a crack/corner to the right of the arete and traversed left at the first obviously easy spot -- good hands and feet. You can't see the bolts until you are well onto the arete so it has a good committing feeling about it. The traverse moves are 5.5-6 at most with the crux climbing higher up on the slabs (5.8ish).
