True Grit, 5.10a [ Sizes: Orig | Large | Med | Small | Thumb ]
True Grit, 5.10a
2nd Pitch- 30m- 5.10a/ The 2nd pitch is home to the crux move of the route. Follow the bolts up and left on pleasant climbing for the grade. Then you come to a steep section where you cannot see the next bolt. This crux move takes a bold swing, right foot first, looking for a small angled toe ledge. The move is protected, but the sharply textured rock gives one pause to be sure, even considering a short whipper. Once you make the right move, you will see the bolt above and the steep terrain eases up. Pass a rappel station and continue to the right of it up to a better belay ledge.
True Grit, 5.10a, 6 Pitches, EEOR (East End of Mount Rundle), Canadian Rockies, June, 2008

""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
