Consolation, 5.8 [ Sizes: Orig | Large | Med | Small | Thumb ]
Consolation, 5.8
2nd Pitch- 50m- 5.7/ Where to end this pitch is variable. To begin, you can climb the corner above or move left to an easier variation. The corner directly above (right) was an enjoyable lead and worth doing. Stem out on solid face climbing while protecting in the corner and turn a small roof situation at the top. From there you continue up easy ground and can build a belay about anywhere. We stopped at the base of the open book corner with a small roof above. There is a small ledge next to a flake of sorts to the left of the corner.
Consolation, 5.8, 7 Pitches, Wully Wall, North Ghost, Ghost Wilderness Area, Canadian Rockies, August, 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
