This Is Love

Begin standing on the edge of the ledge, find good crimps in the horizontal, and make a committing traverse out over the void to the arete.

Exhilarating and a true threshold route into the world of legit highballs. The climbing is not difficult, but it took me more than a few deep breathes to make that first move! It is a must-do on the mind-control circuit at Riggs....

"This is love: to fly toward a secret sky, to cause a hundred veils to fall each moment.

First to let go of life. Finally, to take a step without feet." --Rumi

Follow along southern flank until you see glorious high face that climbs over a giant roof. This and the two climbs to the right begin off a high ledge to the right of the big roof.

Unshakable faith.
