Adventure Climb, 5.10a [ Sizes: Orig | Med | Small | Thumb ]
Adventure Climb, 5.10a
  • The Adventure Climb - 70’- 5.10a/
  • A fun and very aesthetic line. Take a right turn off the trail onto a short switchback trail that takes you up to the left end of the arête. Start here and take 8 bolts to anchor. The 5.10 move comes about 2/3rd of the way up where it gets blank for your hands and you have to do an exposed move with your right foot out onto the face and then raise your left foot up to waist to catch a sloping stance. Hands will only be good for balance as you stand to clip the next bolt. One more 5.10 move should get you past the next bolt and onto easier ground. Chains are at the top, but if you are going to top rope, leave your gear in and clip through on rappel for directional. They have bolted another section of the arête further along, but this is not a published route as of 2007. It looks to be on suspect overhanging clayish rock. Go for it if you wish but it did not look appetizing to me. There are also several unpublished routes up the south face of the arête. These do look like well placed routes with unique features.

    ""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
