Finding the start for North Ridge 5.5 was an absolute quest that was so flustering I forgot to record Pitch 1. This climb was one of the most consistent climbs move-for-move out of all the Table Rock climbs I did this day. Hope you enjoy the fruits of our epic bushwhack and rope-drag and pathfinding disasters.

Probably better climbed as a multi pitch? That's a beautiful sunset at the end!

I've read that people link it all the way from where I started to the finish, but yes for rope drag and communication purposes it's better to pitch it out. I was also hoping to catch the sunset at the top so tried to "save time" by combining. Thanks so much for watching all the way til the sunset!! Wow!

Surely the big bush counts as a runner?
