Headache, II, 5.10 [ Sizes: Orig | Large | Med | Small | Thumb ]
Headache, II, 5.10
  • First Pitch - 100’- 5.9+/
  • I suppose there is no 5.10 move on this pitch, but if you are not a great crack climber than it goes harder than pitch 2 and 3. Start off with a beautiful #2 crack, jamming and stacking off the deck for approximately 50'. Then it opens up to more mixed terrain (photo above), but still utilizes good crack techniques. You come to a mellow overhang you can turn on facial features to the right or maneuver directly up and over to the anchor. A couple of biners are here for those wanting to bail the route (2007). The roof of the 2nd pitch is directly above.

    ""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
