Perseverance Furthers

PERSEVERANCE FURTHERS - 5.10c ** (250' - 2 pitch) F(13b)

This route climbs around the left side of the main Wu Wei Wall, beginning just left of the obvious lower corner behind a large pine;

P1 - 5.10c*** 120' F (13b) - Climb the SW arete at the left edge of the east facing corner (10-) to an easier yet also enjoyable middle section, (5.6+), which leads to the beautiful arete finish (10+). Belay at the chain anchors (rap station) with extra bolt. Caution it is NOT possible to lower from the top of the 1st pitch with a single 60m rope - without having to down climb the bottom 15' (4th class off to the left). Probably safest to belay at the chains and descend via the rap route to the due south (95'), or continue to the top.

P2 - 5.4* 130' F (5b) - From the chain belay climb up and right to the low angled slab. Climb this to the 2 bolt anchors at the big ledge on top. Caution; it is NOT possible to lower with a single 60m rope from the top belay.

To descend

from the top use the rap anchors at the top of the dirty low angled gully about 50' to the west of the top anchors. A 95' rap leads to the mid anchors, a second 95' rap to the south gets you to the bottom of the face (about 50' west of the start of the route).

At the far left end of Wu Wei Wall - climb the lower left face of the corner to the upper slab. It is possible to rap from a set of chain anchors (50' west of the route's top) with a single 60m rope…
