Diet Delight, 5.9 [ Sizes: Orig | Med | Small | Thumb ]
Diet Delight, 5.9
2nd Pitch- 95’- 5.9/ Easy climbing up an assortment of flakes, offering little pro, that angle left landing you at the crux move of the route which is protected by a relatively new bolt (only fixed gear on Diet Delight in 2007). Clip the bolt and pull the slight overhang up and into an easy 5.8 corner climb above a large ledge. Belay at a comfortable treed ledge to the right with several .4 Camelots. There is a pocket of sorts for a .75 Camelot, but I would have preferred to have saved two .4’s for a bomber crack above the pocket instead.
Diet Delight, 5.9, 4 Pitches, Windy Peak, Red Rocks, NV, December, 2007

""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
