Needles Eye Climb [ Sizes: Orig | Med | Small | Thumb ]
Needles Eye Climb
A popular place. You will draw an audience, like it or not, when climbing this objective. We did the 5.10 direct face route, a little run out, but a classic local favorite. Bob Archbold actually showed me this route. Needles, Custer State Park, South Dakota (route page coming) April, 2006

a Needles page for SP Dow?
Been enjoying your spire photos. Would be cool to have a page for this neat little place? Any plans?

A very interesting shape of the formation. How big is this thing? Would be nice to climb there!

Cheers, Vladislav...over 50 meters, you need double ropes for most raps in the Needles.

""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
