Guinness Gully, WI 4

1st Pitch-30m/ In December, 2006 this pitch had some minor mushrooming effect going on. We started and kept right. This is a classic WI 4 pitch, nice and vertical, but not overwhelming to make screw placements. Once you near the top, venture left to the trees to find a belay station in place or make your own. Place one screw at the top for a directional for the 2nd. Rock flanks climbers right and makes for an aesthetic pitch. The views over the valley below and down the valley leading to Emerald Lake help keep you warm. Guinness Gully, WI 4, Beer Routes, Yoho National Park, BC- December 29, 2006
