Wraith, 5.10a [ Sizes: Orig | Large | Med | Small | Thumb ]
Wraith, 5.10a
3rd Pitch- 45m- 5.10a/ As before stated, I combined this alternate pitch with the 2nd alternate pitch for a full 60m-70m climb. I placed little gear on this pitch and that was towards the end. The crux moves are well protected via modern bolts (4-2008) although quite spaced out . The climbing constantly trends left on hard cheese grate limestone. Eventually you turn another minor arête to the left and find a few 5.10 crimp face moves. You can now see a short corner up and left that leads to a bolted belay beneath the long corner above.
Wraith, 5.10a, 8 Pitches, Epitaph Wall, West Phantom Crag, Devil’s Gap, South Ghost, Canadian Rockies, July, 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
