Solar Flare, 5.10c [ Sizes: Orig | Large | Med | Small | Thumb ]
Solar Flare, 5.10c
2nd Pitch- 70’- 5.10c/ This is the crux pitch of the route. Traverse easy ground below the roof to its right end. Ascend up to a suspect bolt that can be backed up by a nut or two. Make a incredibly fun roof pull on pretty good rock. Swing your feet up fast or even heel hook. Once through the one or two hard moves, the pitch eases way off up to a fixed station.
Solar Flare, 5.10c, 5 Pitches, Sunspot Ridge, Oak Creek Canyon, Red Rocks, Nevada, December, 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
