Past Lives, 5.9

Past Lives, 5.9

  • Past Lives – 3 Pitches- 5.9/
  • I turned this into two pitches. 20+/- bolts. This can be a little cold in the morning. Seemed much lighter than a 5.9 I thought. Nice varnished (darker) pockets and edges. Crux is in 2nd pitch, not so bad, little airy out on a minor arête to the left of sorts. You can rap it with double ropes, otherwise a walk off. When rapping, a horned owl came out of her nest and spun me around. I would have never climbed this route if I knew she was there. Please avoid this route March-April. A raven tried to steal the eggs and was almost successful. She finally came back to them. (neat photos of the nest and eggs to follow) Prophesy Wall, St. George, UT, March, 2007
