Angelus Vicia, 5.10a [ Sizes: Orig | Large | Med | Small | Thumb ]
Angelus Vicia, 5.10a
7th Pitch- 40m- 5.10a/ You can see one bolt above you protecting a move at the grade. There is another bolt you will see as your reach this one above the small roof. Avoid the corner to the right. You pretty much head straight up from the belay, perform a tricky stem through the roof and continue as the angle eases up above. The guide book’s topo is mistaken here. Instead of moving out left on easy run out face terrain as it insinuates looking for another corner to the left, rather stay with the corner to your right without great pro opportunity until you reach a precarious pillar. Ascend the pillar delicately and belay atop it using good small to medium cracks above along with one older fixed piton.

""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
