A climb at Winter Wall
Add Photo Printer View
Description A very nice mix of face and thin crack moves, Winter's Respite is a good way to push your limits a little if you're getting confident as a 5.8 leader. Starting with somewhat slabby and sparsely-protected face climbing, move up to steeper ground and trend right and up to a finger crack. Follow the crack to finish at the big ledge.
Location The first route on the Winter Wall; just left of an obvious large corner.
Protection Small to medium gear (nuts, cams, tricams). Bolted anchor.

| Fun route that I keep coming back to. Protects well with small pro and a nice tricam placement for a first piece. |

| Definitely not 5.8 gear. Mary chose a ball nut as the first piece. It was bomber as well. |
