font size=2>9th Pitch- 30m- 5.9/ Have the belayer convert the 2nd and/or 3rd onto his/her harness and efficiently scramble on loose ground to the base of the best pitch of the route (photos) and set up a tree belay here. The best pitch of the climb is a vertical crack/corner that takes gear from bottom to top and is on a small wall detached from the main wall you have been climbing. You still have one bolt low and three high where the crack gets dirty. Place several small-medium nuts and several cams. Take a #4 with you if you have it to protect a bad jug you have to pull on. Real aesthetic, sustained and enjoyable pitch. Cory's Groove, 5.9, 9 Pitches, Mount Cory, Banff National Park, August, 2007 Comments |
