university wall

[rr666]

are the last 2 pitches on university wall worth it? they look like they are a bit of traversing climbing, with some 4th class thrown in. i would think that it would be easier to just rap the route prior to these pitches? Plus, if I am hauling, the second day I can just leave the pig and rap right back down to it. completing the route is full one thing, but if the pitches are not very good, I would rather rap and do some quality pitches somewhere else.

i've heard they're good. i've seen a photo of hamish fraser on one of them in an old squamish guide, it looked sick.

if you don't finish the route but bail before the top, then quality climbing or not, you have failed to send.

[rr666]

I don't mind being a failure and failing to send the route. as long as I have a good time and climb some quality rock. there is too much good rock to spend time climbing on non-quality pitches.

just climb the damn thing.

The whole climb is excellent....all the way to bellygood.
