Paiute Pillar, 5.9R

Paiute Pillar, 5.9R

7th Pitch- 120’- 5.9/ I advise taking the ninth pitch of Bird Hunter Buttress versus the 5.7 seventh pitch of Paiute Pillar. They both end up at the same large pine tree above. Move right and head up the shaded and mossy corner. There is plenty of good gear in the corner and we found little to no need to clip any of the bad bolts that line the face on the right. Mostly smaller cams, C3’s and nuts fit the openings in the corner. Good stemming to the top of the corner which is longer than it looks from below to the large tree and ledge above.
