| Leading the crux pitch 6 of... | [ Sizes: Orig | Small | Thumb ] |
Leading the crux pitch 6 of Total Soul (5.10b). Where I am in the shot is the thick of it: a high angle friction section that's only about 15 feet high and well protected by two bolts. Pulling the "overlaps" or roofs is relatively easier (July 18, 2005).

Hasn't voted | Hey Jim,
Thanks and nice job on your WA Pass climbs.
Give it a shot (some friction climbing) - it's addictive and kinda cool :)
This climb is not scary. All the harder pitches are well protectable, mostly with good bolts (or good trad stuff). By the time you hit the 8-ish runout on P7, you're pretty well "warmed up" to slabs and it's not that bad at all. | | Posted Jul 19, 2005 1:40 pm |

Voted 10/10 | Thanks Radek - I guess if it is well protected I can bring a cheater stick and get past the crux moves on top-rope!
Sounds like you and Shirley were hanging out at WA Pass too on Sat. We weren't expected rain there but made the best of it. Sunday sure was nice, though. | | Posted Jul 19, 2005 1:58 pm |

Easy enough to do that on the cruxes I think but I also think you wouldn't need to do that Jim. | | Posted Jul 19, 2005 2:32 pm |
