fenderfour Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 Are there no valid A5 pitches in WA because there is no rock that will yield the route, or is it because there are no climbers that will do it? FYI - My intent isn't to troll, i'm curious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyingpig Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 Wouldn't someone have to die on a pitch to declare it a death pitch. Does A5 have to spell danger, or maybe it could be a rating for how technical the placements are. That would be great footage to get for the new "faces of death". Climber nails loose flake, climber plummets to death (A5). Not anymore, good gear behind the flake.It was a death pitch, and that dead fucker ruined for all of us. What will I climb now when my girlfriend dumps me? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr_Phil Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 Whatever, dumbfucks. A5 means belays are solid, but gear on route is not. If you come off, you probably rip all the way back to the belay. That's all it means. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
