Weathering Heights, WI 4 [ Sizes: Orig | Large | Med | Small | Thumb ]
Weathering Heights, WI 4
1st Pitch/55m- Start right on easy ice and move back center, right and then left again to maneuver above protruding rocks separating the falls. Obviously the condition of these falls could vary drastically from year to year. The crux and steepest ice is 30-40 meters up below the before mentioned rock buttress. We went left for the final 10 meters, but it goes right as well, just steeper. The route eases after this steep section and you should find a reasonably comfortable, albeit small, belay stance at about 55 meters.

""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
