Surfs Up, IV, 5.9

3rd Pitch- 45m- 5.9/ Continue up and right among many stacked flakes that are heavily covered in lichen and moss. Pass at least one slung flake and make a cruxy traverse out right below the alcove ledge above. Then move up and into the alcove and a comfortable belay.

""You cannot stay on the summit forever; you have to come down again. So why bother in the first place? Just this: What is above knows what is below, but what is below does not know what is above. One climbs, one sees. One descends, one sees no longer, but one has seen. There is an art of conducting oneself in the lower regions by the memory of what one saw higher up. When one can no longer see, one can at least still know."" --Rene Daumal
