Prince of Darkness, 5.10c [ Sizes: Orig | Med | Small | Thumb ]
Prince of Darkness, 5.10c
3rd Pitch- 130’- 5.10a/ The 3rd and 5th pitches require more gear placements then the other four. I know I at least used a #1 C4 and a #2 C3 along with a nut or two in a decent seam in the middle of the bolted line on this pitch. I am not sure there are as many bolts as Handren describes in his book. I believe Supertopo is more accurate with about 13 bolts to a hanging belay. This is the third hardest lead of the route.

""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
