Pureblind Pillar, 5.8-9 [ Sizes: Orig | Med | Small | Thumb ]
Pureblind Pillar, 5.8-9
6th Pitch- 110’- 5.8-9/ I consider this pitch a 5.8 versus 5.9 as some publish. However, you cannot protect the first third of it and the terrain is quite dirty and loose. Move right and up a thin weak seam until you reach large jugs and a varnished crack above. Protect easily up this fun crack and venture out right below the summit to a hidden tree for the belay.

""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
